Moss is thought to add a sense of calm, age, and stillness to a garden scene. Moss is also used in bonsai to cover the soil and enhance the impression of age. [65] Rules of cultivation are not widely established. Moss collections are quite often begun using samples transplanted from the wild in a water-retaining bag.
The GBIF also lists Morinia Cardot, [3] Saitoa, [4] Sebillea M.Bizot, 1974, [5] and Spruceella Müll.Hal., 1900 [6] but with no subfamily details.. Subfamily Timmielloideae (and its two genera of Timmiella and Luisierella) have been transferred to a new family Timmiellaceae, due to molecular phylogenetic analysis in 2014.

The Bryopsida constitute the largest class of mosses, containing 95% of all moss species.It consists of approximately 11,500 species, common throughout the whole world. The group is distinguished by having spore capsules with teeth that are arthrodontous; the teeth are separate from each other and jointed at the base where they attach to the opening of the capsule.

The moss can be distinguished from similar mosses by its erect and cylindrical capsule and its "hair-pointed" leaves. Neighboring Barbula species are distinguished primarily by its lack of hair-pointed leaves and Grimmia species, which possess the hair-apices, have short and ovoid capsules.
