binomial_authority =Nejburg ,1960 "Protospagnum nervatum" is the only known species of order Protosphagnales. In many ways, it resembles the living
moss genus "Sphagnum ", though its leaf cells are not as strongly dimorphic as in "Sphagnum". [Oostendorp, Cora. "The Bryophytes of the Palaeozoic and the Mesozoic". ("Bryophytum Bibliotheca", Band 34, 1987). ISBN 3-443-62006-X.]References
