Dactyloctenium aristatum

A vibrant and healthy specimen of this grass species found in the sands of Arher. Many species found elsewhere on Socotra grow to their full potential by the sand dunes of Archer as there is seepage of water and shadow from the tall cliffs here.

Native range is north east Africa, Arabia, Pakistan and India.
