Go back to beginning of Cephaloziella
Synonym: None.
Special Status: ORBIC List 3.
Recognition: Small plants with spreading, bilobed leaves, leaf lobes triangular, 6-10 cells wide at lobe base. No underleaves on sterile stems.
Distribution: Most common on organic substrates or on soil, in pure patches or mixed in with mosses, occasionally on damp, shady rocks; low to high elevations.
Comments: The complete absence of underleaves on all shoots of Cephaloziella hampaeana is characteristic. Autoicous shoots are usually readily observed as the androecia and gynoecia are typically developed in proximity. Sterile material will be difficult to separate from Cephaloziella rubella.
