Takakia lepidozioides

Takakia lepidozioides is a species of moss in the Takakiaceae family, one of two species of Takakia . It is characterized by its tiny bifid leaves in which each segment is only a few cells wide, conspicuous rhizomous shoots, and long leafless stolon shoots which facilitate the colonization of bare areas. A very unusual feature is the lack of male plants within the species, which are thought to have become extinct during an ice age.
