Rigid scleromitrion, scientifically known as Scleromitrion rigidum, is a rare and unique plant species found in specific alpine environments. This plant is characterized by its tough, leathery leaves and compact growth form, which help it survive in harsh climatic conditions. It belongs to the family Sarcodactylaceae and is native to regions in southern Africa. Due to its limited distribution and specific habitat requirements, it is considered vulnerable to environmental changes. Conservation efforts are crucial to ensure its survival in the wild.
