PELLIA EPIPHYLLA (L.) Dum. 
The most common and widely spread hepatic in Scotland, 
both on the low ground and on the hills to 3000 ft. alt. at 
least. It is found on almost every kind of moist or wet 
ground, especially moist banks, side of ditches and streams, 
and among wet rocks generally. It is also common in 
marshy ground, but less so when peaty. The narrow 
undulate forms of wet ground are usually sterile, but 
otherwise the species fruits abundantly from March to 
May.
