| Description on Commons | Illustration of Dicranum rufescens first published in Bryologia Europaea (v.1) in 1851. The same illustration was reused in Mosses with Hand-Lens and Microscope, published in 1903, but the species was there identified as Dicranella rufescens. It isn't clear which name is the valid one. |

| Credit line | Bryologia Europaea, seu, Genera muscorum Europaeorum monographice illustrata, 1836-1855. I've colorized the original black-and-white drawing and added the labels "A" and "B" to identify the sporophyte and gametophyte generations (respectively). |
