Osmitopsis parvifolia is a species of plant from South Africa.
This shrublet grows up to 40cm (20inches) tall and is densely covered in oval-shaped leaves. The leaves are reflexed (bent downwards) and toothed. They are NaNmm long.[1] Flowers are present between September and February.[2] The flower heads are radiate and solitary. They are yellow with white rays. The pappus (a modified calyx that surround the individual floret) is absent.
This species is endemic to the Western Cape of South Africa, where it grows between Betty's Bay and Sir Lowry's Pass. It grows on stony sandstone slopes and in crevices. There are three known crevices which have a collective area of 200km2. It is found at an altitude of NaNm (-2,147,483,648feet).[3]
Although the species has no known threats, it has a small range. As such, it is considered to be rare by the South African National Biodiversity Institute.
