Habitat:
Low hummocks at ecotone of Sphagnum cristatum bog and Chionochloa rigida grassland.
Notes:
apparently a juvenile form of boggy habitats' this is what has been termed "Dicranum scoparium" in Otago.Forming mosaic with AJF 11431 which is more representative of Dicranoloma robustum / 'integrifolium"
Specimen notes
Supplementary remarks:
The more erect and imbricate leaved form has leaves shorter (c. 5 mm) with nearly entire margins; the costa at mid leaf is 54–60 µm wide and with 4 median guide cells; and mid laminal cells are elongate and porose. This material is identical to what has been erroneously termed Dicranum scoparium by Sainsbury (1955a, p. 123).
In the Lammermoor Ra. (cf. Fife 11430 & 11431) a very clear mosaic of the erect-spreading form of D. robustum and a more erect- and imbricate-leaved form has been observed. The co-occurrence and intergradation of these two forms in wet subalpine or alpine peatlands provides evidence of the plasticity of D. robustum and some understanding of the several names which have been applied to this protean species.
