Porella sp.
Leafy liverwort clump with very tiny scaly structures on thin stems. Growing directly on rock surface and providing mat structure for other plants to germinate and grow in.
Spotted growing on granite outcropping on top of Kennesaw Mountain (near a spring)
Very similar in appearance to liverwort specimen spotted previously nearby http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/179... However, "leaves" and plant structures are much smaller, tighter, and dense.
