|discussion=<p><i>Dicranoweisia crispula</i> is an extremely variable species. In stature the plants vary 1–6 cm, while the leaf length varies 1–3.5 mm. The capsules vary considerably from cylindric to short-elliptic, with the length ranging 0.5–2 mm. The shape and sheathing of the perichaetial leaves is also variable. Although this species is autoicous, sex organs are often absent, especially in terrestrial plants, with sporophytes correspondingly infrequent. Differentiation of alar cells is often weak in North American material and the striolation can also be weak, and is best observed on cells adjacent to the costa. This species is widespread mainly at higher elevations in western North America, but sporadic in the eastern part of the continent, again occurring mainly at higher elevations.</p>
