Introduction to the Anthocerotophyta
Most people are unaware of hornworts, though they are a quite common and widespread group of plants which may be found in tropical forests, along
streamsides, and in disturbed fields around the world. Most species are small and unassuming greasy blue-green patches, but some tropical species can cover
large areas of soil or the sides of trees. Because of their unique morphology, there have been many questions about relationships and origin of the
Anthocerotophyta. [eng]
