Supplementary remarks:
There is contradictory information in the protologue and on the specimen.
The protologue cites "Hab. In patches on rotten legs, woods near Norsewood ; and more largely on the ground in dark shaded low woods, sides of River Mangatawaiiti, between Norsewood and Dannevirke, County of Waipawa, 1884–5 ; W.C."
The specimen cites "Banks Redcliff R."
Redcliff R. has not been located, but it may have been a colonial name for Mangatewaiiti Stream.
