Harpanthus scutatus
Harpanthus scutatus is a small leafy liverwort, a non-flowering moss-like plant that grows on damp, shaded surfaces such as rock, soil banks and rotting wood. It is a wild bryophyte and is not grown as a garden or houseplant, so care centres on keeping the habitat moist and shaded.
Harpanthus scutatus is a species of liverworts belonging to the family Geocalycaceae.
It is native to Eurasia and Northern America.
