On this gritstone rock were lots of small, green patches of Leptodontium flexifolium and also a patch of older brown shoots about 2.5cm long. I've included this as the old shoots look very different to the shorter, green shoots.

Hard to photograph this very small species in situ! but this is Didymodon glaucus at it's only known remaining locality in the UK in north Wiltshire. Habitat is very shaded chalk talus in a small abandoned quarry. Reminded me of Didymodon umbrosus but the leaves a brighter green and less arching away from the stem. Upper leave irregularly crenulate, basal cells hyaline and slightly enlarged, leaf margins recurved.

In crevice underneath sandstone rock overhang. Very awkward angle to get photos, and no sample as only a small amount. It was definitely glowing!

We could only find one on flower this year within the west pit and road verge areas - very disappointing compared to other years

On the muddy edge of a pool. First time I've noted that cells in mid leaf of broad stem leaves longer than those of the branch leaves.

Think... this might be L. badensis given leaf shape and decurrency

I found this 2 years ago and didn't know what it was, but now I realise it is Leptodontium flexifolium so I thought it would be worth logging correctly. Growing at the side of the track in upland oak woodland. I found some more not far away.

In an alkaline fen growing with Scorpidium cossonii, Calliergon cuspidatum and Campylium stellatum. Long nerve extending into very fine, long, slightly channeled acumen. Very small-leaved, fine, slender plants with obscurely dendiculate margins and rather indistinct auricles with larger round-hexangonal cells
