Mossicles

Icy Glittering woodmoss (Hylocomium splendens) and perhaps Wavy broom moss (Dicranum polysetum) or Broom fork moss (Dicranum scoparium)???

A great day at our woodland bryophytes workshop 🌿

Field ID + microscope work = getting properly up close with mosses.

Thanks to everyone who joined us!

The scarce liverwort of arable habitats Sphaerocarpos - they need ripe spores for identification. A bit is on the kitchen windowsill getting regular sprays to keep it moist. Hoping it's Texas Balloonwort as it has the best English name but either of the two balloonworts would do!

My most exciting find on Weds w the wildlife group was Sphaerocarpos in a sandy arable field that had asparagus in it until last year. New for Shropshire but unless I can get a sample to ripen on the kitchen windowsill it will be Sphaerocarpos sp. Help! #bryophytes @bbsbryology.bsky.social

Sphagnum teres is one of the few species in the UK with a consistently prominent central bud to its capitulum. A great indicator of base enrichment and a memorable species to learn for upland habitat identification!

Sphagnum teres is one of the few species in the UK with a consistently prominent central bud to its capitulum. A great indicator of base enrichment and a memorable species to learn for upland habitat identification!

Sphagnum Teres

A loose growing, lawn forming species found in a base-rich flush in the Yorkshire dales.

Glowing in the sun and showing off its amazing colour, sometimes described as 'malt vinegar'- but it can be completely green in shade!

Darker colours are found in shadier, wetter parts of the riparian zone, with that growing at water level sometimes looking completely black.

Hyocomium armoricum

A neat-looking riparian moss found most commonly in the North and West of the UK.

Shades vary from inundated black and green, to drier variants of golden brown, and can be recognised by its large, neat growth style and habitat.

Two participants sit at a table during a bryophyte identification workshop, examining moss samples with microscopes while using field guides and notes. One person holds a small clump of moss while another studies specimens under a microscope. The table is covered with books, hand lenses, and identification sheets, showing a hands-on learning environment.

Scapania compacta has leaf lobes that are a similar size, facing in similar orientations. This gives it a flatter, more regular look compared to other, more three-dimensional species.

Scapania compacta has leaf lobes that are a similar size, facing in similar orientations. This gives it a flatter, more regular look compared to other, more three-dimensional species.

Scapania compacta

Despite being full of rain here, this is a Scapania species found in relatively drier areas. It was very common across a slate covered, gravelly riverside in the Lake District due to the free-draining nature of the substrate.
