Picturethis and iNaturalist both agree on this identification so I’m hoping you will too. It makes sense given the location.

Except maybe not the var africana bit. Just Grimmia pulvinata

I’ve got a confirmation from an iNat identifier. I need a CNM moderator to confirm it please.

Hi Lisa,

Yes, I agree that it is Grimmia pulvinator. I was not aware of any subspecies until I saw your post although now I see that, according to the Census Of SA Plants, all those in South Australia are ssp. africana and, according to the Atlas Of Living Australia, so are all those in Australia.

Cheers,
Alan

Nevermind. I forgot I’m a moderator for AB. I confirmed it myself. 😊
