Tuberous sundews: These nearly 50 Australian species form an underground tuber to survive the extremely dry summers of their habitat, re-emerging in the autumn. These so-called tuberous sundews can be further divided into two groups, those that form rosettes and those that form climbing or scrambling stems.
Drosera subg.Ergaleium, collectively known as the tuberous sundews, is a subgenus of three sections of tuberous species in the genus Drosera.The three sections represent natural groups, including the rosetted species (section Erythrorhiza), the fan-leaved species (section Stolonifera), and the erect or scrambling species (section Ergaleium).
Drosera peltata, commonly called the shield sundew [1] or pale sundew, [2] [3] is a climbing or scrambling perennial tuberous species in the carnivorous plant genus Drosera.Among the tuberous sundews, D. peltata has the largest distribution, which includes eastern and western Australia, New Zealand, India, and most of Southeast Asia including the Philippines.

Drosera stolonifera, sometimes referred to as the leafy sundew, [1] is a tuberous perennial species in the genus Drosera that is endemic to Western Australia. It produces 2 to 3 semi-erect lateral stems that grow 10 to 15 cm long. It is most closely related to D. purpurascens, but differs by several characteristics including height and petiole ...
A striking feature of Drosera magnifica is the candelabrum shape of the inflorescence, which were made of multiple cymes similar to other, geographically distant species such as Drosera binata or the tuberous section Ergaleium, quite unusual for a Brazilian species. [2]
