Growing in large mats on various substrata around brooks in coolwet places. Common in elevated regions. There is a great variation in robust-ness and in width and serration of leaves, but in fruit the plicate capsules fur-nish a character that will at once distinguish it from all closely related speciesexcept the next. When sterile the basal angles of the leaves are not likely tobe confused with any other species. H. Patientiae Lindb. Of
