Utricularia circumvoluta
A small, probably annual bladderwort from the monsoon tropics of northern Australia. Its thin yellow-flowered stems twine up grasses and sedges, as in the related U. scandens. It grows in swamps, sedgeland, boggy creek floodouts and seepages, often in shallow water, during the wet season. It needs heat, strong light, waterlogged peat and something to climb.
Where it grows wild
Swamps, sedgelands, wet savanna and seepage herbfields near streams and lagoons, usually in shallow water among tall grasses and sedges, which its inflorescence twines up. Labels include 'boggy creek floodout', 'saturated seepage slope' and 'permanently wet mound spring over black peat'.
A lowland species of the northern Australian monsoon tropics; the records seen give no elevations.
