Moss Spelling Dictionary: Mosses, lichens and liverworts, spelled out.

Why it surfaced

This is a wonderfully narrow answer to a real problem: the page starts with a spelling someone guessed and works backwards toward the silent letters, Greek compounds, Latin diminutives, and surnames hiding inside the pronunciation. Its nine featured names range from polytrichum to pseudevernia, with as many as twelve spellings collected for a single genus.

A compact reference for spelling the names of mosses, lichens, liverworts, and hornworts after hearing them spoken aloud.
