∙ 10y agoFunaria is a genus of approximately 200 species of moss.
Moss plant Funaria grows in dense patches or cushions in moist shady and cool places during the rainy season. It has a height of 3-5 cm, a radial symmetry with a differentiation of an axis or stem, leaves or phylloids and multicellular colorless branched rhizoids with oblique septa.
These are primitive multicellular, autotrophic, shade loving, amphibious plants. They reproduce by spore formation. They have no vascular system. Root like structures called rhizoids are present. They show alternation of generation i.e. the gametophytic stage alternates with the sporophytic stage
