Riccardia is a large genus of wet forest to rainforest thalloid liverworts represented by 16 species in Tasmania. Members of this genus are often found growing on rotten logs or on stream banks. Other than a few distinctive species, members of this genus require making microscopic sections to tell apart. Material is best examined fresh for positive identification to be made.
