Previously recorded as L. attenuatus in this area. Probably need Herbarium specimens.

You are almost certainly right about it being attenuatus. I have great difficulty deciding whether it is attenuatus or microphyllus pilibundus from photos. All the other microphyllus pilibundus on CMN are on Black Mountain.
