Lycopodiaceae   (Club-Moss Family)

Notes: Generic ranking is disputed in the family; here we do not recognize Diphasiastrum, but otherwise tentatively follow FNA, noting that generic differences are so minor that the segregate genera may all be best treated as subgenera within Lycopodium

Family Synonyms: (none)

Literature: (none)
