i went to travel a bit in the north of my country - and found two or 3 species of moss. got them from a rocks where there is running water and shade. most of them was emerged but i saw a few of them submerged - where can I.D them?
here is a pic of one of the mosses i have found:


comparing them to christmass moss:




i can also take a photo under microscope , but it will take me some time though

the temp here was 30 c and water temp was 24c.
the ph is around 7 - 7.2

You can send some to me, Baruch and I'll ask the professor if he can identify it. No promises, though as the prof is an expert only on Malesian mosses.

I'm the reckless sort so I don't have to private message when I send somebody my address . Here it is:

I'm sure there must be a bryologist or 2 in Israel. You can try writing to the universities in your country. Ask around in the Biological Sciences' Departments.

In one of our conversations, the professor told me there are many moss experts in Europe and the US of A but I don't know who they are.
