Leswidden: locally plentiful on quartzose gravel within
flood-zone at edge of large pool (disused china-clay quarry),
unshaded or slightly shaded by Grey Willows. Large population
in inundation-zone at edge of Cargenwen Reservoir, Nov. 2004,
growing on sparsely vegetated open banks and partly to
moderately shaded at edges of and beneath Grey Willow scrub.
Associates include Archidium
alternifolium, Calliergonella
cuspidata, Drepanocladus aduncus,
grasses and herbs. Widespread in upper part of inundation-zone
beside Colliford Lake (reservoir), where
locally plentiful among short grasses and herbs in a few
places, but mainly occurring as scattered immature plants in
areas partly bare of vegetation. Small patch with other mosses
and low phanerogams on soil in sheltered hollow at base of old
mortared wall of ruin of mine building (Crow's Nest).
Discovered new to Scilly in 2003, with sparse very low plants
on unshaded damp acid sand among very short vegetation of
