Abstract
Several contributions of Lycopodium taxonomy on the infrageneric level have been made recently (Wilce, 1965, 1972; Chu, 1974; 0llgaard, 1975; Bruce, 1976a, b, c). Earlier literature on the classification of this group was summarized by Wilce (1965) and Bruce (1976b) and need not be repeated here. The present study includes new observations on branching patterns and attempts to correlate these with infrageneric classifications of Lycopodiium, about which there has been some disagreement. Only Troll (1937, pp. 465-482) has dealt with the subject at some length considering the genus as a whole; other students (Holloway, 1916, 1919; Wilce, 1965; Primack, 1973) have treated smaller groups in greater detail.
