Stoebe rugulosa is a shrub belonging to the Asteraceae family.[1] The species is endemic to the Western Cape and is part of the fynbos and renosterveld. It occurs from Caledon to Albertinia and has a range of 5000 km² where there are five subpopulations. The plant has lost more than 70% of its habitat to the cultivation of wheat over the past 80 years. It is also threatened by invasive plants.[2][1]
