labeled and colorized drawing to illustrate the brown sporophyte (A) and green gametophyte (B)

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Illustration of Dicranum rufescens first published in Bryologia Europaea (v.1) in 1851. The same illustration was reused in Mosses with Hand-Lens and Microscope, published in 1903, but the species was there identified as Dicranella rufescens. It isn't clear which name is the valid one.
Date
Source Bryologia Europaea, seu, Genera muscorum Europaeorum monographice illustrata, 1836-1855. I've colorized the original black-and-white drawing and added the labels "A" and "B" to identify the sporophyte and gametophyte generations (respectively).
