To all my follower: I will delete this account within one week. I can not use a platform, that have chanced so much to the worse. If you want to download some pictures in it, do it now.
All the best to you. Michael
The view from the Belchen (Schwarzwald, SW-Germany) to the Alps is always a highlight if there is a good viewing weather like last weekend.
We recently discovered a new occurrence of Schistidium spinosum in the Black Forest, Germany, a tiny species with sinose-toothed hairpoint and cyathiform capsules with perforated peristome. I was there last weekend and luckily the capsules were just ripe
