Asteraceae – Western Cape Province, South Africa
Gorteria
Shown: Detail of flowers and foliage; raised, dark swellings at the base of one or more ray florets are characteristic of the the species; these swellings are believed to have evolved in mimicry of the appearance of the natural pollinator of G. diffusa, a bee-fly (Megapalpus nitidus); for a discussion of this theory, see:

"Gorteria is a genus of flowering plants in the daisy family. It was named in honour of the dutch physicists and botanists Johannes de Gorter and his son David de Gorter." (Wikipedia)
