A genus of liverworts, which are small primitive plants related to mosses that grow in moist environments.
Scientific Latin name for this plant genus. The term comes from the scientific naming system established by Linnaeus in the 18th century.
Liverworts like Blasia are evolutionary survivors from when plants first conquered land 450 million years ago—they still prefer moisture because that's how they've always reproduced!
