Slender, yellowish green plants. Stem with central strand, up to 3 cm high. Leaves falcate, to 12 mm long, lanceolate or oblong base, tapering into a long, slender, fragile capillary tip which is up to 1.5 mm long with numerous uniformly small, sharp teeth on back and margin; costa ca. 60 μm wide at base, long-excurrent; cells of lamina 10–12 μm wide; lower cells strongly porose, up to 120 μm long; upper cells 40–70 μm long, lamina cells in section with lumens as wide as high or wider and outer walls distinctly and evenly thickened. Sporophyte unknown.

MAS AFUERA: Los Innocentes, 950–1000 m, Sk. 46 (type, S).

MAS A TIERRA: El Yunque, K. M337 (S); Cordon rechts v. Yunque, 600 m, K. 313/9c (B).

The species is known only from Juan Fernandez. The slender leaf tips are reminiscent of Dicranoloma menziesii but the elongate cells are entirely different.
