The Pohl Moose ( Pohlia ) are a cosmopolitan common species of mosses from the family Mniaceae .

description

Pohlia species grow in loose to dense lawns. The upright stems have a more or less pentagonal cross-section and a clear central strand. The leaves are ovate to lanceolate, with entire margins or partly toothed towards the tip of the leaf, without a pronounced edge and with a simple vein that ends in front of the tip of the leaf or rarely emerges. The lamina cells are elongated hexagonal to linear. The spore capsule on the long seta is upright to pendulous and short ovoid to cylindrical. Stomata are restricted to the capsule neck, they can be phaneropor (not depressed) or kryptopor (depressed). The peristome is double. In a number of species, bulbils are formed in the leaf axils .

Generic name

Johannes Hedwig (1730–1799) named the genre after Johann Ehrenfried Pohl (1746–1800). Hedwig succeeded Pohl as full professor and director of the Botanical Garden in Leipzig.
