|discussion=<p><i>Huperzia porophila</i> occurs in several disjunct populations, most notably in the Driftless Area of Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. A sterile hybrid between <i>H. porophila</i> and <i>H. lucidula</i>, H. × bartleyi, occurs throughout the range of <i>H. porophila</i>. It reproduces vegetatively by gemmae and is common in habitats intermediate between those of the two parents. In Ohio the hybrid may occupy sites to which <i>H. porophila</i> would otherwise be restricted, thus reducing the sites available for colonization by <i>H. porophila</i> (A. W. Cusick 1987).</p>
