features
The trunks are richly branched and form few stolons . They form dense, black-green lawns 0.5 to 1 centimeter in height. The plants are a maximum of one millimeter wide. The leaves are boat-shaped, stick out sparsely; when spread out, they are rounded and square. They are incised on a third to half of the length, so that two triangular, pointed to blunt lobes arise. In the middle of the leaf, the cells are 12 to 14 × 15 to 20 micrometers in size and triangularly thickened in the corners. Each cell contains two oil bodies . The female bracts are larger than the leaves. A perianth is available.
Distribution and locations
