Plagiochila porelloides is commonly known as the cedar-shake liverwort. It can be easily identified by its large, oval, unlobed leaves. The entire plant is relatively large compared to other leafy liverworts; it can grow up to 10 cm long. A rather unusual characteristic of P. porelloides is its toothed leaf margins:
