Cryphaea lamyana is an aquatic moss found in unpolluted rivers,[1] It is local or rare throughout its range and in the UK is restricted to a few sites in Cornwall and Devon and a number of sites on the River Teifi where it is most commonly found.
Its common name is multi-fruited river moss so named because of the spherical orange capsules in which it bears its spores.[1]
