Hypopterygiopsis Scabrida

Hypopterygiopsis scabrida is a rare and intriguing species of liverwort found primarily in moist, shaded environments. This small, non-vascular plant belongs to the family Porellaceae and is known for its unique morphological features. Its rough, scaly leaves and delicate structure make it easily identifiable among other liverworts. Despite its modest appearance, it plays an important role in its ecosystem by contributing to soil stability and providing habitat for microorganisms. Due to its limited distribution and fragile nature, it is often considered a sensitive indicator of environmental health.
