Eremogone ursina

Eremogone ursina is a species of flowering plant in the family Caryophyllaceae known by the common name Bear Valley sandwort.

It grows on quartzite pebble plain habitat in forest openings in the San Bernardino Mountains near the communities of Fawnskin, Sugarloaf, and Baldwin Lake.

Eremogone ursina is a petite perennial herb forming small tufts no more than 18 centimeters tall.

The inflorescence is an open cyme of white flowers with five petals each under half a centimeter long and protruding purple-anthered stamens.
