Taxiphyllum barbieri, known as Java moss or Bogor moss, is a moss belonging to the family Hypnaceae.[1][2] Native to Southeast Asia, it is commonly used in freshwater aquariums. It attaches to rocks, roots, and driftwood. In the wild, it grows in humid riparian areas.[3]
It was originally described as Isopterygium barbieri from Vinh, Vietnam.[4]
