Hypoxis sessilis L.

Ecological interactions

Conservation status

SR-P; SH, G4.

Distribution

Wet pine savannas (SPS-T, WLPS, VWLPS).

Notes

Occasional. Apr(-later, especially in response to fire); May(-later, especially in response to fire). The specimens collected by the author lack seeds, which are the most accurate means of distinguishing this species from Hypoxis wrightii . However, the floral and vegetative features (see key above) of the specimens match the descriptions of Hypoxis sessilis , and the specimens themselves appear similar to Hypoxis sessils specimens examined at NCU (Britt 195, Leonard and Davis SWL– 748, Radford 147, and Sorrie 12618).
