Ulota

Ulota is a genus of moss, typically forming dense, green clumps on tree bark and rock surfaces, indicative of its preference for humid, shaded environments. Its small, curled leaves and tufted appearance are distinctive, often flourishing in the cool microclimates of temperate forests. The capsule, once matured, protrudes conspicuously, aiding in spore dispersal, integral to its reproduction and survival.
