I found another liverwort! I found another liverwort! I found another liverwort while looking at moss on a log. I had to bring a piece into the house for a closer look with the Zoomy to confirm what it was. Using the Zoomy, I recognized the oddly shaped leaves from a page in Susan Munch's book Outstanding Mosses & Liverworts of Pennsylvania and nearby States and sure enough, it was the variable-leaved Crestwort, Lophocolea heterophylla.

Same with using Zoomy:
Notice how the leaves overlap! Some leaves are rectangular and some are bilobed hence "heterophylla".
