Schistostegiales

Schistostegiales is a unique group of mosses thriving in dimly lit, moist environments. Characterized by their vibrant green, translucent leaves, these mosses form dense, compact mats over the soil or rock surfaces they inhabit. This structure is crucial for utilizing limited light and retaining moisture, enhancing their survival in shadowed, damp niches.
