Pinguicula habilii

A Turkish butterwort described in 2012 and placed in section Cardiophyllum with P. crystallina and P. hirtiflora. Its ecology is scarcely documented. The measured site in central Anatolia has cold winters and dry, hot summers, so the plant almost certainly depends on springs or wet rocks.
