Very nice pictures Mark & a great variety to look at. Especially the Embryonic Development of your Cynops pyrrogaster & the picture of him now it's a treat to see. Best of luck with the rest of the eggs.

Hi Dane, that’s moss collected from the great outdoors. I’m no moss expert but the bulk of it looks like Thuidium tamariscinum with a spot of sphagnum thrown in. There’s probably a number of species growing in the same clump. We have a particularly damp climate here in the UK and moss isn’t hard to find.
