Wettish acid mountain grassland about 500m asl nr Llanberis -
North Wales


I would start out with a guess that it is either a Lycopodium or a
Selaginella, or some relative of one.

Armed with those suspicions, I poked around the internet and found
this image. http://www.plant-

which looks a lot like your specimen.
