This hardy plant grows where the high watermark is, and is thus very salt and mineral tolerant. You can see the salt and mineral deposits to the bottom right.
Altitude: 4300 metres.
04 Xenophyllum incisum
I’m not so sure this is right, as the one I’ve photographed is very salt tolerant species which I found only in relations to the lagoons.
When I check eol.org, for instance, the specimen there is a different species.
On your site it’s definitely a match though: http://www.planetefleurs.fr/Systematique/Asteraceae/Xenophyllum_incisum.html, so the question is your source. Your image is the only one when I google the species…
Awesome – thanks for verifying Bravard’s ID, and for the links. I too checked Brink’s photos, but have not come across clarifying descriptions until yours now.
Great to know the Werneria is now Xenophyllum and now I hope to come across the alpine incisium.
With your help here, others googling for images of this species will not be in doubt 🙂
