Lagenophora pinnatifida is a species of flowering plant, endemic to New Zealand.[2][3] It was described by Joseph Hooker in 1853.[4] It is not considered threatened, except in the area of Otago.[2]
It may form a species complex with Lagenophora stipitata.[5]
Description
The flowers are white.[2] The involucre and ray floret length is slightly smaller than the related Lagenophora hirsuta.[6]
There are two varieties. The chromosome pattern is 2n=18.[4]
Distribution and habitat
This species is known from both the North and the South Island.[4] It frequents the margins of water bodies like lakes and streams, and the margins of beech forests. On the North Island, it grows up to 1,200 m (3,900 ft) in elevation, but up to 1,400 m (4,600 ft) on the South Island.[6]
Ecology
It is associated with mountain beech forests,[7] and frequently grows with Halocarpus bidwillii. Near Nelson, it can be found in manuka scrub.[6]
Etymology
Pinnatifida means "pinnately divided, finely cut" in Latin.[2]
