Lycopodium clavatum


Lycopodium clavatum L.
Club Moss. Walter Oates described this plant as growing in the Fern Valley in 1929. Is it still there? This plant is naturally occuring in mountainous areas of Portugal. Globally widespread, it is considered to be in danger of extinction in the Serra da Estrella. What of its status in Sintra?
