Possibly. On oak. Could be a more widespread infection going on here that is killing the oak and the moss - see the blackening bark and observation http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/143658378 Took small piece of bark that crumbled off very easily - photo 6 and 7 I think these are embedded microplastics? Made separate observations for the hyphomycetes and the other lichen here: http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/146356152 Unfortunately the app still doesn't allow me to delete these photos now that I have made separate observations for each.

Guessing based on large cream-white, uniformly-thick obconical fruiting body on orthotrichaceae in winter. Also on Nephroma I think.

On thin soil over gritstone rock among bracken on upland moor. Shoots just over 1cm tall, leaves about 1.5mm long. These are the tallest plants of this species that I've seen so far.

Scattered patches on thin soil at the edge of gritstone rocks, and on peaty soil among bracken stems. One patch growing with Dicranum scoparium. The largest patch was at least 30cm x 40cm. Shoots about 5mm tall, leaves up to 1.5mm or so. I expect there would be more patches between the two areas I've found it in today.

What is this curious liverwort? It seems to have rhizomes with rhizoids… Haplomitria doesn’t have rhizoids… it also seems to have creeping axes… lovely disc shaped gemmae. Growing in what first appeared to be an algae mat… turns out to look more like it is soil held together with this plants rhizoids…

Quite probably some metal influence from the canal metalwork nearby. Leaves red based, bordered, costa excurrent, widest near/above middle. Bulbils, exillary gemmae and tubers all absent. Rhizoids reddish. Leaves rosulate, slightly twisted when dry. Margin recurved. Costa red near base. In P. pseudotriquetrum the leaves are widely spaced along a tall stem and widest below the middle.
