The incised Bartkelchmoos ( Calypogeia fissa ) is a liverwort from the family Calypogeiaceae in the order Jungermanniales .
Identifying features
The incised Bartkelchmoos grows in recumbent, pale green lawns, the individual shoots of which are up to 4 millimeters wide and up to 5 centimeters long. The loosely tiled flank leaves are egg-shaped and broadest just above the base. The bent-back tips of the leaves are usually cut at a short acute angle and are thus bidentate, but sometimes they are simply pointed to narrowly rounded. The thin-walled, hexagonal lamina cells are about 35 to 50 µm by 40 to 60 µm in the middle of the leaf and contain 4 to 8 water-white, oval oil bodies . The sub-leaves are often hardly wider than the stem, but not infrequently up to about 2.5 times as wide as this. They are divided up to 1/2 or 3/4 of their length into two triangular-egg-shaped lobes, the outer edges of which are often provided with a tooth or cusp. The moss is monoecious , it is rarely fruitful. Brood bodies are often present, they are oval to ellipsoidal and 24 to 42 µm in size.
Location claims and occurrences
The lime-avoiding liverwort grows on loamy soil in gorges and embankments in light to shady, fresh locations in forests, rarely in swampy areas and in moors. In Europe it is distributed as a Mediterranean-oceanic species from the lowlands to lower mountain ranges. There are other occurrences in Asia, Africa and North America.
