Eriocaulon Morulum

Water starwort, scientifically known as Eriocaulon morulum, is a rare and delicate aquatic plant found in specific wetland habitats. It is characterized by its small, star-like flowers and its ability to thrive in shallow, still waters. This plant plays a vital role in maintaining the ecological balance of its environment by supporting various microorganisms and invertebrates. Due to habitat loss and pollution, Eriocaulon morulum is increasingly threatened and requires conservation efforts. Understanding and protecting this unique species is essential for preserving biodiversity in aquatic ecosystems.
