On which continent does Cephalotus follicularis grow wild?

Cephalotus follicularis grows wild in Australia, specifically in the southwestern corner of Western Australia.

This small carnivorous plant is endemic to peaty swamps and other permanently moist habitats near the coast. Its modified leaves form pitchers that trap insects, much like the unrelated tropical pitcher plants of the genus Nepenthes.

The species is often called the Albany pitcher plant, Australian pitcher plant, or Western Australian pitcher plant. Those names can cause confusion because Australia has other carnivorous plants, including sundews and bladderworts, but Cephalotus is the only species in its genus.

Its natural range is restricted: it occurs in a roughly 400-kilometre zone between Augusta and Cape Riche. Habitat loss and its limited distribution have contributed to its IUCN Vulnerable status.
