Mosses and Liverworts – a preliminary list
NOTES:
Status of the list. Please note that this is a very preliminary list, generated by an introductory level bryophytes class offered on February 20-21, 2016, by the Rancho Sanata Ana Botanic Garden and taught by Dr. Paul S. Wilson, California State University, Northridge. Mosses and liverworts were identified visually in the field with the aid of a hand lens. Definitive identification will require more detailed study.
