    It looks like feather moss, but I don't really know. It might be something in either the family Brachytheciaceae or Selaginellaceae, but neither is really recorded in West Papua.

    Just so you can see the similarity, this is feather moss: https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/450656-Oxyrrhynchium-hians     Posted one year ago
