Collection notes
Four specimens collected here (from the same patch, so may include portions of the same plants): KMW447.01-477.04. A population level sample was silica dried, and fragments of 447.01 (from the rhizome plant) and 447.03 were transferred to silica by CJR, August 15 2019. All the fertile plants appear to have malformed spores (a mix of spore sizes/shapes, with most being irregular or dust-like, but some large and round).
