Looking at a more academic [the pictures are in bw 8-)] volume, the male are disc shaped and the female 9-rayed. This is the only British species of this genus, although there is an aquatic variant. mike - Email provided by http://www.ntlhome.com/

LOL. They've even got sunscreen on their legs, but forgot to shave them. :-) Marchantia polymorpha?

They look like archegoniophores rather than antheridiophores to me, though that's only going from aussie marchantiophytes. Here the antheridiophores are shorter, smaller and have flat upper surfaces (rather than having fingery projections as the ones in the photo). Plus IIRC the archegoniophores release their spores from the upper rather than the lower surface. BTW, I haven't come across the word polymorpha - what does it mean? Cheers, David
