Drosera Pedicellaris - Distribution, Habitat and Status

Distribution, Habitat and Status

There are only two known populations of Drosera pedicellaris, both southwest of Geraldton near Three Springs in Western Australia. It grows on beige sand heath, accompanied by low shrubs.

As almost nothing is known about possible further sites and the species itself requires further research, it has been declared as Priority One - Poorly Known Taxa by the Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation. This plant is also found in the stirling ranges east of Perth city in Western Australia.

Famous quotes containing the words habitat and/or status:

    Neither moral relations nor the moral law can swing in vacuo. Their only habitat can be a mind which feels them; and no world composed of merely physical facts can possibly be a world to which ethical propositions apply.
    William James (1842–1910)

    The censorship method ... is that of handing the job over to some frail and erring mortal man, and making him omnipotent on the assumption that his official status will make him infallible and omniscient.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
