Subclass Andreaeobrya
Andreaeobrya are a group of closely related species of small Mosses that grow in dark-brown to blackish masses
on rocks.
They are found in areas with a cold climate and at the tops of mountains.
They are often seen as some of the first colonisers of bare rocks.
Members of this group seem to represent a sort of transition stage between Peat Mosses
and the much larger group of the Eubrya.
