Malesherbia scarlatiflora |
Malesherbia scarlatiflora is a shrub native to the pacific slopes of Peru. [1] [2] It grows up to 1 meter tall, has narrow ovate-acuminate leaves, and orange flowers. [3] [4]
The genetic diversity of the species is average, based on heterozygosity rates across two populations. [4] There is strong evidence of geneflow between different populations. [4] On the basis of low genetic diversity, M. scarlatiflora is currently classified as endangered. [2]
