Hemiphues suffocata Hook.f.

Actinotus suffocatus, the crimson flannelflower,[2] is a small, perennial herb endemic to the Australian State of Tasmania.

[3] It is primarily found in high-elevation habitats in wet situations, except in the far south-west of the island, where it occurs down to sea level in continually moist habitats.

[4] Actinotus suffocatus was described originally as Hemiphues suffocata by Joseph Dalton Hooker from plants gathered by R.C.Gunn at Fatigue Hill (nowadays Calders Lookout), near Mount Arrowsmith, in central western Tasmania,[5] and later transferred by Leonard Rodway to the genus Actinotus.

[1] Actinotus suffocatus is a small, rhizomatous, mat-forming perennial herb with leaves in a basal rosette and a cup-shaped inflorescence of sessile flowers on a short, erect scape.
