Drosera stipularis

Drosera stipularis is a northern Queensland sundew described in 2020 by Baleeiro, Jobson and Barrett, known from only a few records inland of Cooktown on Cape York Peninsula. It lives in a hot, monsoonal climate with a very wet summer and a long dry season. Detail on its habit was not reachable, so conditions follow the measured climate and tropical northern Australian sundews.
