Drosera aquatica is a species of sundew endemic to the Northern Territory and Western Australia. It was first described by Allen Lowrie in 2013.[2] Like other members of Drosera sect. Arachnopus it is an annual therophyte.[3]
As the specific epithet implies, D. aquatica can be entirely aquatic, floating on the surface of floodwaters from the Australian monsoon.[4]
