Moss and lichens grow in every terrestrial biome on earth, serving key roles in each ecosystem. Researchers are still exploring their microscopic world, and discovering surprises along the way. These tiny tufts create habitat, nourish plants and animals and warn us about dangerous air quality. Their lifecycles, anatomy, and ecology will be shared through stories from around the world. You’ll also learn to recognize a few species you might find at home.
