Haworthia mirabilis

Haworthia mirabilis - Haworthia
.
Common name: Haworthia
Family: Asphodelaceae
Distribution: Western Cape: Bredasdorp - Napier
National red list: Data Deficient - Taxonomically Problematic
Life form: Succulent plant
Comments: Haworthia mirabilis was described by Haworth in 1804 from plants said to have been brought to England by the collector Francis Masson. It could thus have originated from practically anywhere in the southern and south-western Cape. This group is very taxonomically challenging, with conflicting species delineations and no modern molecular studies available.
