Schizacme archeri (formerly known as Mitrasacme archeri; Loganiaceae) 2:475

Schizacme archeri is a reasonably alpine, common cushion plant species. It is easily distinguished from the other cushion plant species by its leaves - they are circular and arranged like dinner plates stacked together.

The other species of Schizacme (S. montana) can be similar, but is not a true cushion plant, and the leaves do not have the translucent margins.
