| Distribution of D. dilatato–petiolaris in Australia | |
Drosera dilatato-petiolaris is a
diploid chromosome number of 2n = 12.[5]
Drosera dilatato-petiolaris is found in damp sandy soils on higher ground than Drosera petiolaris is found. It is native to coastal areas near Darwin in the Northern Territory and the northern Kimberley region of Western Australia.[1][3][4] It was first recognised and illustrated by Ludwig Diels in his 1906 monograph on the Droseraceae, but was not formally described until 1984 when Katsuhiko Kondo authored three new species in the Drosera petiolaris complex.[1]
