About

Euphrasia salisburgensis is a plant in the genus Euphrasia, in the family Orobanchaceae.

Where it grows

As with other Euphrasia species E. salisburgensis is a hemiparasite. Webb & Scannell in their flora of the Burren found that it was closely associated with Thymus praecox and suggest that it may be a specific hemiparasite of this species. The subspecies E. s. subsp. schoenicola is instead thought to be a specific hemiparasite of the sedge Schoenus ferrugineus.
