for context, see daily account for Index, WA on 5/12. i looked at mosses in pojar and felt like oregon beaked moss came closest to describing this moss i saw growing at the base of a tree in the moist index forest. pojar says it is common in lowland rainforests, which would be appropriate for the wetness of this area, and is a yellow-green to orange-green, which is also confirmed by this picture. most distinct of all though is its branches, which resemble individual fern fronds.
