Monoclea forsteri
Monoclea forsteri is a unique liverwort with a creeping, leafy thallus that resembles moss. Its lush, bright green tissues thrive in damp, shaded environments, often colonizing stream banks or moist forest floors. Remarkably, monoclea forsteri reproduces with large spore capsules, a significant identifier, that erupt like tiny volcanoes from the thallus, dispersing spores to continue its lifecycle.
