Euchiton traversii, commonly known as mat cudweed, is a small, woolly, alpine rosette herb.

[3][5] It grows in alpine and subalpine areas, often in bare patches within wet healthland and grasslands.

[6][7] The leaves are 1–3 cm (0.4–1.2 in) long and 4–5 mm (0.16–0.20 in) wide and are coloured silvery-grey or white with a prominent midvein.

[5] Some other Euchiton taxons are less well-delimited, with further information needed to clarify the taxonomy and genetic boundaries of the genus.

A species with similar habit and habitat, Argyrotegium nitidulum (shining cudweed), is listed as Vulnerable under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cth), with possible threats including warming alpine conditions reducing available habitat, developments causing disturbance, and competition from invasive species.
