For the preservation of this locality, collection is prohibited. These small drosera were in a mossy clearing on a foothill of Mount Wellington. They are most likely Drosera peltata var. gracilis. The central stems would have flower buds at the top, although some we saw had traps off the stem. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drosera_peltata
