''Hypnodendron comosum'', commonly known as palm moss or palm tree moss, is a ground moss which can be divided into two varieties: ''Hypnodendron comosum'' var. ''comosum'' and ''Hypnodendron comosum'' var. ''sieberi''. Both ''Hypnodendron'' varieties most commonly grow in damp locations in the temperate and tropical rainforests of New South Wales, Victoria, and Tasmania in southern Australia and in New Zealand.
