Oxyrrhynchium hians

Oxyrrhynchium hians is a common pleurocarp which can be identified quite readily with care and a good hand lens in the field. With the example below I could see through the hand lens the nerve extending past the half way mark but not reaching the tip and the margin of the leaf toothed. A good feature for O.hians is the leaves being spaced out along the stem.
