= Lycopodiella camporum B.Øllg. & P.G.Windisch, Bradea 5: 24, f. 3. 1987.

Range: —Savanna regions of Venezuela and the Guianas, Peru, Amazonian Bolivia (BE, LP, SC), Paraguay, Argentina, and Brazil.

Ecology: —Fairly common; terrestrial. Occurs mainly in swamps, moist campo-grasslands, on peaty or sandy soil, often in the light-open vegetation adjacent to gallery-vegetation at rivers, often subject to flooding during the rainy season; 0–1000 m.

Notes: —Sometimes Palhinhaea camporum grows alongside Palhinhaea cernua , and is readily recognized by its growth habit, but generally the two species are separated ecologically.
