Help with ID: Limestone moss or liverwort?



Hello,
I observed this frondose-moss in Clayoquot Sound on limestone rock seeps in Tofino Inlet. I have never seen it before. Can anyone help me identify it? It is pinate shaped with overlapping costate/nerve leaves with a single row of ventral leaves along midrib. I wondered if it was a liverwort, but it appears more moss-like.
See attached photos. And thanks!

  1. I would like to work with plants and checks them in the stereoscopy.
