I am starting to study mosses where I live and I have been using the keys in the Flora of North America. I recently ran into a moss that the FNA said was an Orthotrichum but iNaturalist placed in the Lewinskya genus. That genus is not recognized by the FNA. What source does iNaturalist use for the classification of mosses?
