|discussion=<p>Andreaea blyttii is distinguished by leaves with long, narrow subula, nearly filled with the strong costa, and rectangular basal cells, and small spores. Collections commonly lack sporophytes. Distal laminal cells may be minutely mammillose abaxially, and the leaf margins are thus crenulate.</p>
