APC Comment
Mainland Australian collections are treated at species level only. Du Puy (1993) treated the Christmas Island population as f. complicatum, following Wieffering (1964), and P.S.Green (1994) considered that the LHI populations probably represented f. dilatatum. Ophioglossum petiolatum Hook. was recognised as distinct from O. reticulatum by P.S.Green (1994) in his treatment of the LHI and NI floras, but these taxa are usually combined by Australian authors.
Ophioglossum vulgatum var. minutum F.M.Bailey is placed in synonymy here (rather than under O. lusitanicum as in Fl. Australia 48: 108, 1998) after a re-assessment of illustrations from Bailey's Lithograms of Queensland Ferns (R.J.Chinnock, pers. comm.)
