Marchesinia mackaii from south Co. Down growing on the ancient tropical seabed geology - new site record and the 1st record for the county since the 1930s it seems! Neckera complanata in association and a new hectad for that too, more used to seeing it on trees

A classic black-and-white studio portrait of American botanist Elizabeth Gertrude Knight Britton in her middle age, likely from the late 19th or early 20th century. She is shown in a three-quarter view, facing slightly to the side with a calm, intelligent, and resolute expression. Her dark hair is neatly pinned up, and she wears a high-necked dark dress or blouse with a light lace or ruffled collar and a dark jacket or shawl. The soft lighting and plain dark background emphasize her dignified presence and scholarly demeanor. The image highlights her legacy as a leading authority on North American mosses, advocate for plant conservation (including the creation of the New York Botanical Garden's moss collection), and one of the first prominent women in U.S. botany.
A vintage black-and-white photograph of botanist and bryologist Elizabeth Gertrude Knight Britton, taken around 1886 when she was in her early 30s. She is seated outdoors on a wooden porch or veranda surrounded by dense forest trees, leaning forward intently over a small table. She wears a long dark Victorian-style dress with a patterned bodice and full skirt, her dark hair styled in an updo. Her left hand rests on a microscope looking through the viewfinder. There are books, papers, and possibly plant samples nearby. The serene outdoor setting and her focused posture capture her dedication to the study of mosses and liverworts, reflecting her early career as a pioneering woman in American botany and co-founder of the Sullivant Moss Society (now the American Bryological and Lichenological Society).
Elizabeth Britton died #OTD in 1934 & was a titan of #botany.
She co-founded the New York Botanical Garden (NYBG) & the Sullivant Moss Society. A premier bryologist, she published 346 total papers (170 specific to mosses) & described 6 families for the Flora of America. #WomenInSTEM #bryology (1/2)

Difficult to photo on a wall soaked by a cascade of running water from a leaking pipe outside Dobbies Garden World #BuryStEdmunds #Suffolk. Could this be Myriocoleopsis minutissima, Minute Pouncewort? 🤔

A very orange baby roughskin newt (Taricha granulosa) is walking over a compact tuft of green moss on a rain-wet grey rock. The baby newt's eye gleams gold on its top half, and black beneath. The baby's orange body is partially transparent as it is backlit by the low winter sun, so various innards show as black blobs inside the newt's abdomen. In other newts this life stage is called an eft, but none of my guidebooks use this term for roughskin newts, I wonder why?
A baby roughskin newt on moss; an old photo. One of many moved off the road over the years, as they migrate from natal ponds to the winter forest to forage. Somewhere I have a video of this little one's climb from my hand up the rock to this summit.

Brede church with a group of wet bryologists looking at the walls and trying to avoid the very slippery path
View of the river Brede from Brede churchyard. The river is very high and nearby fields flooded
Moss hunting in the rain at Brede in Sussex. The first thing Graeme said to me was "I've come bryologising by mistake"

Photo through a dissection scope showing a few branches of a small moss with tiny, ovate and slightly cup-shaped leaves.
Tiny living green beings, all around us. This miniature world is so gorgeous. The leaves of this #moss from the base of a tree trunk are not even 0.5 mm long. I am still trying to ID it to species. #bryology #nature #moss-streak2026 #iNaturalist #microscopy
