- NEED IN SITU PHOTOS. In the Watershed, Bolander's quillwort has been documented from a limited number of locations in the South San Juans: ponds near Elwood pass (Rio Grande Co, 2000), and high lakes in the north of Conejos Co and the south of Rio Grande Co. The alpine or subalpine habitat is persistent ponds and occasionally marsh. Probably Isoëtes bolanderi is more common in the Watershed, since the plant is small and often completely submerged, and its chive-like appearance can be mistaken for a grass. The species has been recorded from all Western USA states. In the Rio Grande drainage, it is uncommon in New Mexico and found only in Rio Arriba Co.
