Ephemeraceae

The very small moss plants with narrow leaves and brown capsules at center and right are Ephemerum serratum. Other moss species are present at top and bottom. Photographed the same evening from a patch of 'moss turf' gathered on the West Coast Bryophyte Foray 2016.

The Ephemerum plants are the small ones with narrow leaves and brown capsules. Some Bryum plants are also visible as the larger greener moss. This was photographed at home as a piece of moss turf gathered intact from the CYO Camp on Feb. 19th 2016
