Plagiochila radiculosa (Plagiochilaceae)  
 
Plagiochila radiculosa is reasonably common rainforest liverwort. When well formed, they appear as bright green tails hanging off the bark of rainforest trees. In the field, P. radiculosa is distinguished from other Plagiochila species in having only 2 teeth the near the leaf apex.

Superficially this species may resemble Saccogynidium decurvum but the latter species has distinct underleaves.
