Conocephalum conicum

This small clone of Conocephalum conicum was collected in 1978 in a cave on the Isle of Man by E V Watson, and is mentioned in Jean Paton’s “The Liverwort Flora of the British Isles” . It was sent to the laboratory of Prof. J. Szweykowski (Poznan, Poland) where it is still maintained in culture. (See I. J. Odrzykoski and J. Szweykowski., 1991.
