|discussion=<p><i>Pohlia cardotii</i> is a rare alpine species characterized by dull green, relatively broad leaves with wide costae and recurved margins. The distal medial laminal cells of <i>P. cardotii</i> have more or less porose walls. The sporophytes are erect, with irregular exostome teeth, a low endostomial basal membrane, and narrow, slightly keeled, broadly perforate segments. This species sometimes forms deep turfs in moist alpine sites.</p>
