Growing on roadside soil, mixed collection with Bryum argenteum and a second Bryum-like species. This species has longer 1.9-mm leaves and mid-leaf cells measuring about 16 microns and with numerous low papillae. The basal cells appear sharply differentiated and measure about 30 microns wide and are variable in length. Costa appears to have a triangular central hydroid. This keys tentatively to S. princeps...

Trying to figure out if this is the correct genus. It’s been super hard to get a proper cross section bc it’s SO small.
This was growing on a thin layer of soil on a rock face in shade, NE-facing in coastal scrub/chaparral. Last pic is the habitat. I will try to get better photos of the leaves. It appears to branch.
I suspect this is the species after careful examination but I’m fairly new at IDing mosses, any help is appreciated! : )
Growing in association with Poa secunda ssp. secunda. on a N-facing slope on soil.
Lots of this moss around on north facing soil...presumably all the same species.
