Hi, I'm just trying to identify this moss? Seen on an old woodland road near Lake George NY... It was not growing on the birch bark, that was my plate. Growing on clay soil. thank you!
Answer
Dear Rustybear, I can only help you a little. You've photographed a liverwort, which is not a vascular plant. Go Botany is a website dedicated to wild tracheophytes (i.e., higher vascular plants) of the northeast. If you examine some images from the web of liverworts, you'll see the high resemblance to your plant. Best wishes.
