Re: Fw: Epiphytes. And I may be nuts!

Steve, I missed seeing a picture of this plant. Can you repost. I have seen these plant listed both Huperzia and Lycopodium. Sometimes Huperzia being used mostly for the Asian species. The Fern Growers Manual list them all as Lycopodium with Huperzia as a synonym. L phlegmaria and nummulaiifolium are very different.
 
Here's a good link of Charles Alford's plants.

According to TROPICOS the basionym is Huperzia phlegmaria (L.) Rothm. and the other names are synonyms.  You can check it and if I read this incorrectly I'll make a correction.

Hi Steve and Leland,

This is Huperzia phlegmaria, not H. nummularifolia.
H.nummularifolia has scales that are rounder, and lay down a bit more that
H. phlegmaria.  Kind of similar, but definitely a different species.
