Other differences are not universal for all mosses and all liverworts but the presence of clearly differentiated stem and leaves, the lack of deeply lobes or segmented leaves,and the absence of leaves arranged in three ranks all point to the plant being a moss.
Mosses were traditionally grouped with the liverworts and hornworts in the Division Bryophyta (bryophytes), within which the mosses made up the class Musci.
Moss spores fall in a constant rain on exposed surfaces - those surfaces which are hospitable to a certain species of moss will typically be colonized by that moss within a few years of exposure to wind and rain.
