|discussion=<p><i>Ptychostomum cyclophyllum</i> is a distinctive arctic-boreal species with broadly ovate to orbicular, blunt, more or less flat leaves that are strongly shrunken when dry. <i>Ptychostomum neodamense</i> and <i>P. subneodamense</i> are similar, but have much shorter proximal laminal cells, 1-stratose borders, and red leaf bases. The occurrence of <i>P. cyclophyllum</i> has probably declined in the United States, as the plants grow in wetlands and along streams in mid elevation regions, areas where human development is often concentrated.</p>
