Euphrasia
(Eyebrights) is a common, obvious and reasonably diverse genus in
the Tasmanian native flora. There are nine native species.
They are all herbs, mostly with upright stems. The flowers are
conspicuous and occur in spikes at the ends of the branches.
These plants are most obvious in alpine areas, but species occur
in a wide range of other habitats (including coastal cliffs, dry
forests, button grass plains).
