I often use plantnet.org for plants whenever I’m outside, and it works really really well. Sadly, not for mosses.

Is there a service out there that’s specialized in mosses and similar stuff?

Because they all look the damn same for someone without experience 😭

If there isn’t anything, can you recommend me other resources where I can learn it myself? What characteristics should I look out for to narrow it down to the species? The subspecies isn’t that important for me :)

    I don’t think we are at technology level required for that, as well as with mushrooms.

    I use this website (exploiting my ability to read in russian), it translates into English quite well with Firefox built-in tool it seems, getting funny at places, but picture guide and systematic and clean description are one of the few gems hidden in russian language-only moderately old academic literature. I struggle finding comparably good wild creature guides (especially for weird things like mushrooms and mosses) in other languages, at least for free.
