Isoetes gunnii (Isoetaceae)


Isoetes gunnii is the most common of Tasmania's quillworts, and can be found growing in alpine/subalpine lakes in most parts of Tasmania. It is native. Like other quillwort species, the leaves are cylindrical and in clumps. The leaves are rigid and the sporangia are not covered by a membranous layer (the velum).
