Camptacra perdita is a species of flowering plant in the Asteraceae family[1] It is native to eastern Australia (Queensland, and New South Wales)[1]
Camptacra perdita was first described in 2020 by Anthony Bean.[1][2]
Description
[edit]Iit is an erect herb growing up to 35 cm high, with stems that are very woolly and a snowy white.[2] The leaves are 1.1 to 5 mm wide (excluding the marginal teeth). There are abundant glandular hairs on the outer involucral bracts, and the lobes of the disc florets are hairy-glandular.[2]
Camptacra perdita differs from C. barbata by its white, densely-woolly hairy stems, and its glandular-hairy involucral bracts.[2]
It has been found in grassland on heavy black soils,[2] with flowering and fruiting having been observed in March, May, September, October and November.[2]
