Kocliii may be sought in dimpylium, buttheir leaves are spreading from the base and not bent, consequently they will lieflat on a slide while the species of Campylhim most likely to be confused withthem will not do so. Plaglolhecium striatellnm may be sought here, as it has the appearance of aCampy/iinn, but the stem is without central strand, the leaves are serrate and thecapsules strongly striate when }^^^ || fit
