Ursinia nudicaulis

Ursinia nudicaulis, also known as the longstalk paraseed or the little daisy is a species of plant from South Africa.

[2] This species is found growing between the Cedarberg and Witteberg, and Humansdorp and the Cape Peninsula.

[2] This plant plays an important role in the early stages of the transition in community structure in primary succession in the fynbos biome.

[4] As with many plants of this genus, Ursinia nudicaulis contains many chemical compunds.

There may, however, be regional differences in which compounds the plants contain as a sample taken from Humansdorp contained laurenobiolide and germacranolides, which were not found in a sample collected from the Viljoens Pass, which spans from Grabouw to the Hottentots Holland Nature Reserve.
