Fossombronia wondraczekii

I was looking forward to ending a long hiatus on the blog with this post, but was delighted to see three other recent posts. It must be autumn!

I haven't done any serious bryo recording since the spring, but was pleased to see a healthy patch of Fossombronia on a wet, acidic cattle track on Pengwern Common (Gower) last Friday. This proved to be F. wondraczekii, which would perhaps have been the most likely species in this habitat - but it's a new one for me.

  1. Nice one George, There aren't too many records of this or any other Fossombronia species in Glamorgan at present.

  2. Saw it again today on Fairwood Common in the same situation.
