Trithuria inconspicua is morphologically similar to T. filamentosa of Tasmania, its sister species in phylogenetic analyses with an estimated divergence of 0.5 Ma 0–1.1 Ma. They share unique features in the genus such as: perennial life history (Pledge 1974), a fully aquatic habitat (Edgar 1966; Edgar 1970; Wells et al. 1998) and apomixis (Remizowa et al. 2008; Rudall et al. 2009; Smissen et al. 2019). Gruenstaeudl et al. (2017) discovered a difference in length in the plastid genomes between the two species >15 kbp and hypothesised a single expansion in the IR region.
