Raoulia hookeri

Raoulia hookeri, also called scabweed and mat daisy, is a species of mat-forming plant.

[1][2] Raoulia hookeri is a mat-forming small perennial with tiny yellow flowers, and silver leaves.

It can be found in montane to subalpine areas, particularly places of open ground such as grasslands and herbfields.

[2] Raoulia was named after Étienne Raoul (1815–1852), a French naval surgeon and naturalist.

The specific epithet hookeri was named after Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker (1817–1911), who travelled under James Clark Ross in the Ross expedition and wrote a book on New Zealand flora.
