our plants are smaller with shorter leaves, turning yellower with

Compared with Drepanium hamatum Mitt., no. 1046, Spruce 
Musci Am. et And.), specimens of which are preserved at Kew 
but are not listed by Mitten. Closely related to this species, but 
differs in its more clearly veined leaves and longer pedicels.
