About

Dubautia scabra, or rough dubautia, is a species of Dubautia endemic to the state of Hawai'i and is found on the islands of Hawaii (island), Maui, Molokai, and Lanai. It is a member of the silversword alliance. Two subspecies have been described, with the nominate subspecies Dubautia scabra scabra being found only on Maui and Hawaii (island).

Where it grows

Dubautia scabra occupies low and moderate elevations on the islands where it occurs, growing at elevations between 75–2500 m. It often grows on barren lava flows, but can also be found in wet tropical rainforests, with the subspecies leiophylla most frequently found in the latter habitat.
