Gabon, Republic of the Congo. Before 2017, this species was only known from two collections: the type collected in 1966 at
<normalizedToken originalValue="Booué">Booue</normalizedToken>
in the
<normalizedToken originalValue="Ogooué">Ogooue</normalizedToken>
river in Gabon, and a collection made by Sita at the Mandoro rapids in the Republic of the Congo, in a tributary of the Kouilou river. Between 2018 and 2020, six collections were made, and its presence was confirmed at
<normalizedToken originalValue="Booué">Booue</normalizedToken>
. It was also discovered at another site in the
<normalizedToken originalValue="Ogooué">Ogooue</normalizedToken>
, the Poubara falls, and it is therefore probably present elsewhere on the
<normalizedToken originalValue="Ogooué">Ogooue</normalizedToken>
river, though it has not yet been collected at several other visited sites along the river. One collection is also known from the Okano river, a tributary of the
<normalizedToken originalValue="Ogooué">Ogooue</normalizedToken>
. The collection by Sita was determined by Colette Cusset in 1998, but since the P (P00179255) specimen shows stems branched multiple times, it was mentioned as doubtful in the synoptic revision of the genus (

(see Notes), we chose to stick with
<normalizedToken originalValue="Cussets">Cusset's</normalizedToken>
determination of the Sita collection, and to consider this species as present in the Republic of the Congo. Moreover, since this species was found at Poubara (only ca 150 km away from

collection site), it is also probably present in the
<normalizedToken originalValue="Ogooué">Ogooue</normalizedToken>

Recent collections revealed a strong morphological variability: the collection
<emphasis italics="true" pageId="0" pageNumber="59">Boupoya et al. 2698</emphasis>
shows cable-like horizontal stems more than 5 mm thick and up to 30 cm long, sparsely covered by scale-leaves, and bearing axillary, short flowering shoots abundantly covered by scale-leaves, while the collection
<emphasis italics="true" pageId="0" pageNumber="59">Boupoya et al. 2684</emphasis>
shows upright flowering shoots of up to 2 cm long, with stems up to 1.5 mm in diameter, abundantly covered by scale-leaves, and attached to a ribbon-like root. Intermediate forms were also collected (

), showing typical features of

, but with upright to horizontal shoots up to 5 cm long and 3 mm thick, still covered by scale-leaves on ca 50-60% of their surface. The three forms (small and upright, medium and upright to horizontal, large and horizontal) may be developmental stages as well as environmental modifications, but more precise field observations and habitat characterization is needed to explain this morphological variability. The morphological variability of
