@plants . Good morning !

Within the last 5 years the name has been updated to Lateristachys lateralis .

Which NatureMapr's taxonomy already has .
Hence _Lycopodiella lateralis_ is a synonym of this updated name.
Hence this sighting of yours requires re-identifying by this updated name and this name _Lycopodiella lateralis_ reduced to a synonym within the _Lateristachys lateralis_ species page .

I am catching up with this too.
When i first learned this species in the late 1980s i think i recall it was named _Lycopodium laterale_ R.Br. .

I thought this looked familiar. Looking at some of my old photos I have a picture of Ciampia arietaria from 8 Sept 2007, galgi gnarrk (Craigieburn Grassland) N of Melbourne on Hume H'way. see Sighting 4693433
