Dorstenia albertii
About
Dorstenia albertii is a plant species in the family Moraceae which is native to eastern Brazil. Plants reach a height of about 20 centimetres (7.9 in) tall. The stem, which is 2 to 3.5 millimetres in diameter, is covered with fine hairs. The leaves, which emerge from the stem every 0.8 cm (0.31 in) in a spiral pattern, are 7 to 18 cm long and 2 to 7.5 cm broad. The species is only known from a single locality in Espírito Santo state in southeastern Brazil, in a moist, shady site. It is similar to D. grazielae, another Brazilian endemic.
