True mosses are non-vascular plants which have simple leaflike, rootlike, and stem like parts. They're not true leaves, roots, or stems because they lack vascular tissues. Mosses and liverworts are referred to as bryophytes, which means "mosslike plants".

Club mosses are vascular plants with erect stems that bear spores in club-shaped, cone-like structures. Club mosses are also called "ground pine" because they grow along the ground in temperate regions and superficially resemble miniature pines.

Is there a poisonous moss?

there is a poisonous marine moss called noctiluca, but is only poisonous to fish. ^^ About that answer... I looked up Noctiluca, and the only thing I found was a protozoan. And a protozoan is definitely not a moss. Also, I was under the impression that moss - true moss, anyways; lots of plants have the name "moss" but aren't actually, i.e. Reindeer Moss, Irish Moss, Spanish Moss - is terrestrial, meaning there's no such thing as marine moss. Anyways, hope that helps!
