Plagiomnium venustum, also known as magnificent leafy moss, is a species of moss belonging to the family Mniaceae.[2] It is found mainly in western North America along the coastal region.[3] This moss can be identified from other members of the Plagiomnium genus by dark coloured stomata guide cells and the absence of sterile stems.[2] It is most commonly found growing as a mat on a variety of substrate, but mainly on humus and moist soil.[4]
