Dicranella is a genus of moss belonging to the family Dicranaceae.[1]The genus was first described by Karl Müller.[1]The genus has cosmopolitan distribution.[1]
Dicranella Heteromalla is found to have a satisfactory holotype.[2] The Dicranella Heteromalla possesses an structured designed to endure acidic environments. In addition, is has multipurpose systems that allow a satisfactory adaption. For example, the wild rhizoid system of D. Heteromalla forms a dense, matted network of filaments of different diameters, which evidences that its major role is solute uptake rather than anchorage.[3]
