Wikipedia Abstract

Lupinus aridorum is a rare species of lupine known by the common name scrub lupine. It is endemic to Florida in the United States, where there were 10 known populations remaining in 2003. Fewer than 6000 individual plants were counted. It is threatened by the loss and degradation of its habitat. The scrub lupine is a federally listed endangered species of the United States. This plant was first collected in 1900, but it was not described until 1982 to science as a species. It is often treated as a variety of Lupinus westianus.
