Discussion
Taxiphyllum taxirameum is a polymorphic species common in the southeastern and south-central United States, particularly the Ozark Mountain region. Taxiphyllum taxirameum has often been confused with the more northern 3. T. deplanatum; for distinctions, see the discussion under that species. Taxiphyllum taxirameum is the most common species of Taxiphyllum in Latin America, and it is especially prevalent in parts of Mexico and the West Indies.
