WebBryophytes are all pretty small plants as they are limited in size by poor transport methods for water, gases and other compounds. Even the largest moss only grows to 50cm tall but much larger colonies of bryophytes can often be found. These colonies are made up of many smaller individuals that work together to absorb and retain water.

WebADVERTISEMENTS: The below mentioned article provides a note on bryophytes. Fossil of Hepaticopsida: Fossils of the Hepaticopsida were previously not known before the Carboniferous while the lower vascular plants (the Pteridophytes) were known from a much earlier age. This fact, naturally, gave rise to speculations. Recently however, Hueber …

Web"Bryophytes" is a resource devoted to Bryology, the branch of plant science concerned with the study of mosses, liverworts and hornworts.

WebBryophytes are the group of plants that are the closest extant relative of early terrestrial plants. The first bryophytes (liverworts) most likely appeared in the Ordovician period, about 450 million years ago. Because of the lack of lignin and other resistant structures, the likelihood of bryophytes forming fossils is rather small. ...
