About

Myosotis mooreana is a species of flowering plant in the family Boraginaceae, described as being endemic to the South Island of New Zealand by Carlos Lehnebach in 2012, and synonymised with Myosotis australis in 2020. Plants of this species of forget-me-not are perennial rosettes with ebracteate inflorescences and white or yellow corollas with stamens that are fully included in the corolla tube or sometimes partly exserted.

Where it grows

At the time of its description, M. mooreana was only known from the type locality and thought to be endemic to Kahurangi National Park, Western Nelson, in the northern South Island.
