Discussion
The leaves of Ptychomitrium drummondii are erect-appressed and straight or only a little curved when dry and, together with the bark substrate, make this dull dark green little moss easy to recognize. Sporophytes are very frequent and abundant. In urban areas in the southeastern United States, P. drummondii is often frequent and abundant on trees in parks and campuses and along city streets.
