Ourisia coccinea subsp. coccinea is a subspecies of flowering plant in the family Plantaginaceae that is endemic to mountainous habitats of the Andes of southern Chile and Argentina. Christiaan Hendrik Persoon described O. coccinea in 1806. This subspecies is found in the eastern and southern parts of the species' range, and has crenate, unlobed leaves that are hairy on the upper surface and pedicels with glandular hairs that are 0.1—0.7 mm long.
Ourisia coccinea subsp. coccinea is native to the Andes mountains of Chile and Argentina from approximately 36°S to 46°S latitude, in the eastern and southern parts of the range of O. coccinea. In Chile it is found in the regions of Ñuble, Biobío, Araucanía, Los Ríos, Los Lagos, and Aysén, and in Argentina it is found in the province of Neuquén. It grows in habitats ranging from sea level to 1600 m elevation in rocky, wet habitats, including near running water, often in shady forests.
