I'm not familiar with this suggested species and the other records on CNM are from coastal areas.

It tends to occur in moister and shadier places than Desmodium varians. It used to be a subspecies of Desmodium varians, but they do occur together without interbreeding.

ACT Plant Census last recorded ir on 1977. Perhaps it should be collected for the Herbarium?
