Beeveria
''Beeveria'' is a genus of moss endemic to New Zealand, in the family Daltoniaceae. It is a monotypic genus with characteristics of the type species, including solely the species ''Beeveria distichophylloides''. The name honours the New Zealand bryologist Jessica Eleanor Beever. Description Habitat ''Beeveria distichophylloides'' is saxicolous and grows in a wide variety of places in lowland to montane forests. It favours calcareous Calcareous () is an adjective meaning "mostly or partly composed of calcium carbonate", in other words, containing lime or being chalky. The term is used in a wide variety of scientific disciplines. In zoology ''Calcareous'' is used as an adje ... rocks such as limestone and can be mainly found growing in cave entrances, along the side of shaded streams, and in ravines and gorges. It has, however, been found on logs and even on the base of trees. ''Beeveria distichophylloides'' also prefers areas with high rainfall and enjoys growing on ...

Moss
Mosses are small, non-vascular flowerless plants in the taxonomic division Bryophyta (, ) '' sensu stricto''. Bryophyta (''sensu lato'', Schimp. 1879) may also refer to the parent group bryophytes, which comprise liverworts, mosses, and hornworts. Mosses typically form dense green clumps or mats, often in damp or shady locations. The individual plants are usually composed of simple leaves that are generally only one cell thick, attached to a stem that may be branched or unbranched and has only a limited role in conducting water and nutrients. Although some species have conducting tissues, these are generally poorly developed and structurally different from similar tissue found in vascular plants. Mosses do not have seeds and after fertilisation develop sporophytes with unbranched stalks topped with single capsules containing spores. They are typically tall, though some species are much larger. ''Dawsonia'', the tallest moss in the world, can grow to in height. There are a ...
