[Taxacom] unknown plant

[Lowell E Urbatsch]

Colleagues,
Images are posted to the link below of what I believe to be Calandrinia (Portulacaceae), possibly C. ciliata.  Plants were growing abundantly in a fallow sugarcane field in south-central Louisiana.  This western taxon seems a bit out of range and has not previously been reported from the state.  In your experience is this determination correct or is it something else?  Thanks,
