Cool spotting Sukanya! Liverworts are so interesting. I have a few that I'm researching. And others I would like to find.

So it is! I am so ashamed. I studied this species in college..no wonder it looked familiar! Thanks for correcting me Brian.

Sukanya this looks like a Bryophyte. Possibly Riccia, which there is many species.
