INFORMATION PROVIDED WITH THE PHOTO
|
date of photo Mar 2006
location
On sandy soil in chaparral, Santa Ynez Mountains (Santa Barbara County, California, US)notes This photograph was was taken at the site where this moss was found in the United States for the first time. We were on a Spring Bryophyte outing and visited a place where sterile plants of what turned out to be this taxon had been seen a month earlier by Paul Wilson and others. The fertile condition enabled these plants to be identified as Pleuridium mexicanum, new to the Untied States. (See The Bryologist 110(3):510-513. 2007). This is an overview image, the plants are the pale green pencil like stems to the left of the coin, mixed in with an upright green acrocarpous moss and a matted small dark liverwort.camera Sanned slide.
