BryophytaCommon name: Moss.
Scientific name: Bryophyta.
Major group: Seedless nonvascular.
Distinguishing characteristics: No leaves, can look like clumps of grass, tiny trees, or strands of green yarn.
Habitat: Anywhere that soil, rocks, or tree trucks are present.
Reproduction: Asexually and Sexually.
Plants in phylum: Dicranoweisia cirrata, Sphagnum, Fisidens adianthoides.
Notable Info: Can survive in deserts and tundra. Sphagnum turns to peat, a useful byproduct.

HepatophytaCommon name: Liverworts.
Scientific name: Hepatophyta.
Major group: Seedless nonvascular.
Distinguishing characteristics: Thallose or leafy. Thallose- lobes of a liver flat on ground. Leafy- 3 rows of stem like and leaf like structures.
Habitat: Damp environments- wet rocks, greenhouse flowerpots, etc.
Reproduction: Sexual and vegetative.
Plants in phylum: Marchantia, Riccardia pinguis.
Notable info: Eggs or reproduction are produced on umbrella-like structures on thallose.
