    Foveolina dichotoma
    Author: Ivan Lätti
    Photographer: Thabo Maphisa

    Foveolina dichotoma, in Afrikaans commonly known as knoppiesopslag (little knobs regrowth), stinkkruid (stink herb) or gansogies (little goose eyes), is a silky, spreading annual reaching from 20 cm to 30 cm in height. The Foveolina genus is generally known as wild chamomile. Branching from the base, the stems trail or are sub-erect.

    The species distribution is in the Northern Cape, the Western Cape and the Eastern Cape. The plants grow in arid regions on sandy flats and slopes. The species is not considered to be threatened in its habitat early in the twenty first century (Le Roux, et al, 2005; iNaturalist; http://redlist.sanbi.org).
