Utricularia baliboongarnang

A terrestrial bladderwort described in 2022 from north-eastern Western Australia, in the monsoon tropics of the eastern Kimberley near the Northern Territory border. It is closely compared with U. singeriana of the Northern Territory. The region is extremely wet from December to March and almost rainless for half the year, so the plant is a wet-season grower.
