About

*Drosera murfetii* is a notable western Tasmanian endemic, easily distinguished from its close relative, *D. arcturi*, by its tendency to bear only one or two carnivorous leaves while the rest are non-carnivorous. It is also generally larger and produces more flowers per scape than its relative.
