Terminology
The term "Bryophyta" was first suggested
by Braun (1964). G.M. Smith placed this
group between Algae and Pteridophyta.[6]
Features
The defining features of bryophytes are:
Habitat
Bryophytes exist in a wide variety of
habitats. They can be found growing in a
range of temperatures (cold arctics and in
hot deserts), elevations (sea-level to
alpine), and moisture (dry deserts to wet
rainforests).[8]

The term "bryophyte" thus refers to a grade
of lineages defined primarily by what they
lack. Compared to other living land plants,
they lack vascular tissue containing lignin
and branched sporophytes bearing
multiple sporangia. The prominence of the
gametophyte in the life cycle is also a
shared feature of the three bryophyte
lineages (extant vascular plants are all
sporophyte dominant).

Evolution
There have probably been several different
terrestrialization events, in which originally
aquatic organisms colonized the land, just
within the lineage of the Viridiplantae.[28]
Between 510 - 630 million years ago,
however, land plants evolved from aquatic
plants, specifically green algae. Molecular
phylogenetic studies conclude that
bryophytes are the earliest diverging
lineages of the extant land
plants.[29][1][30][31] They provide insights
into the migration of plants from aquatic
environments to land. A number of
physical features link bryophytes to both
land plants and aquatic plants.
