Campylopus flexuosus (German Bogiges Krummstiel Moss ) is a moss - kind from the family leucobryaceae .
features
Campylopus flexuosus forms dense dark green lawns up to 6 centimeters high. The trunks have a red-brown felt of rhizoids. The leaves are 5 to 7 millimeters long, protruding upright to slightly one-sided, linear-awl-shaped with a tubular awl and toothed tip.
The leaf vein takes up about one third to three fifths of the leaf width at the leaf base. The cross-section of the rib shows on the underside (dorsal) groups of stereids, a middle layer of deuter cells and on the upper side (ventral) a layer of hyaline cells that are smaller and usually more numerous than the middle deuter cells.
The clearly separated leaf wing cells are usually reddish or brownish, the lamina cells of the leaf base rectangular and thick-walled, above short rectangular to diamond-shaped.
For vegetative reproduction, brood shoots and brood buds are formed. When you stroke over the lawn, these remain on it and thus form an all-terrain characteristic.
Spore capsules are rarely present.
Location requirements
The species avoids lime and grows in forests, moors and heaths on raw humus, peat, rotten wood, on overground silicate rocks and on the base of trees, especially beech or birch . It can be found from the lowlands to the montane elevation.
distribution
The sub-oceanic species is found in Europe from central Italy to central Norway, including Iceland, the Faroe Islands and the Azores; to the east to the Tatra Mountains. In Germany it is quite common and often common.
There are non-European occurrences in Central and Southeast Asia, in tropical Africa, in North to South America, Australia and New Zealand.
