The 120 species in the genus are primarily found in cool, moist habitats, mostly in the Northern Hemisphere but some do occur in the southern part of the Southern Hemisphere. The genus is important because it can dominate large areas and change conditions at these sites, making them less hospitable for some species and more hospitable for others.
