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). Thornhill 124, 176, 218, 295 (NCSC). [= RAB, FNA, Weakley]
