Lagenophora huegelii is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae which is endemic to Western Australia.[2] It was formerly considered to also grow in eastern Australia and Tasmania, though these populations are considered a separate species: Lagenophora gunniana.[3]
It was first described in 1837 by George Bentham from specimens described as being collected by Baron Carl von Hügel and coming from the Swan River and King Georges Sound.[1][4]
