Khelljuhg Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) Some time ago, a Japanese man had a trip to Socotra Island, Yemen, where he found an Utricularia-like plant. He says that the spot was rather dry and there was no water source there. Here are the photos he took there: photos: © mishmish Can anyone tell what this plant may be, please? Thanks!

Andreas Fleischmann Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Hello, The calyx in Linaria would be much smaller than in the plant on the photo. It's a species of Kickxia, Scrophulariaceae. Andreas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
