Acetosella (formerly known as part of Rumex; Polygonaceae) 3:583
Tasmania has one introduced species of Acetosella (A vulgaris, sheep sorrel). This is a very common and widespread weed in waste ground, untended gardens and agricultural areas. It is a smallish, erect herb with at least some sagittate leaves (i.e. with a narrow, relatively long lobe spreading on each side of the base of the lamina).
