  abstract = {{T}he spores of {L}ycopodium deuterodensum germinate after 3 weeks in the dark on a nutrient medium containing inorganic nutrients and glucose. {T}he dark grown prothalli have the characteristics associated with {T}ype {I} and {II} gametophytes - a ring meristem, radial symmetry, and lack paraphyses and photosynthetic lobes. {T}he {Y}ounger gametophytes have the carrot shape of a {T}ype {II} gametophyte with a tapering base, a constricted neck, and a gametangial cap with antheridia. {W}ith additional growth, the gametophytes become as wide as long and finally wider than long. {T}he wider than long gametophytes are the first to have both antheridia and archegonia on their gametangial caps. {T}he largest gametophytes grown in culture are {T}ype {I} with irregular disk shapes. {T}he antheridia on all gametophytes are sunken and, for the {L}ycopodiaceae, the archegonia have medium sized necks with only 3-4 neck canal cells. {A}lthough the specific type of gametophyte has not been determined for this species, those grown in culture have the characteristics recognized for subterranean, nonphotosynthetic, mycorrhizal gametophytes of the {L}ycopodiaceae.},
