    this isn’t a moss. it’s probably lycopodium, and is not a bryophyte. It’s distantly related (but like, so are ferns, horsetails, and basically all vascular plants, and we also don’t exactly know how).

      I found out in my language it’s called “wolf foot”.

        yeah most of this is from memory so I think I got it right. it’s been decades since I set foot in a paleobotany lab though
