Branches in fascicles of 5, with 2–3 spreading. Branch leaves 1.2–1.6 mm × 0.6–1.0 mm, ovate-lanceolate, gradually narrowed to a sharp acumen, reflexed in the upper part, margins involute; hyaline cells rhomboidal, fibrillose, with large, ringed pores at the corners of upper cells, gradually positioned along commissural rows in the lower cells on the ventral surface; with a few large, non-ringed pores at the upper corners, gradually becoming numerous rounded, ringed pores near the base on the dorsal surface; inner walls adjacent to green cells often faintly papillose; green cells in cross section trapezoidal, exposed more broadly on the dorsal surface, slightly exposed or largely enclosed by hyaline cells on the ventral surface. Dioicous. Perigonial leaves similar to vegetative branch leaves. Perichaetial leaves oblong-ligulate, 4.0–5.0 mm × 2.0 mm. Spores grayish brown, papillose, ca. 25 µm in diameter.
