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 influx of women into paid work and her increased power raise a woman’s aspirations and hopes for equal treatment at home. Her lower wage and status at work and the threat of divorce reduce what she presses for and actually expects.
    Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
