Description

Drosera brevifolia is a carnivorous plant.

Distribution

Ecology

Habitat

D. brevifolia occurs in moist to wet, sandy or peaty soils (FSU Herbarium). It also seems to prefer more open conditions that provide higher light levels (FSU Herbarium). It can be found in longleaf pine communities,[1] pine-saw palmetto flats, open glades, and at the margins of marshes, grass-sedge bogs, ponds, and swamps (FSU Herbarium). It also occurs in some disturbed areas that are moist and open, including power line corridors, cutover pinewoods, roadside ditches, open fields, and mowed lawns (FSU Herbarium).

Phenology

Flowering has been observed in March through May (FSU Herbarium).

Seed dispersal

It is found in the seed bank of disturbed and non-disturbed sites.[1]

Seed bank and germination

Fire ecology

This species occurs in habitat that burns frequently (FSU Herbarium).

Pollination

Use by animals

Diseases and parasites
