Drosera serpens is a species of sundew native to southeast Asia and tropical northern Australia. It was first described by Planchon in 1848.[1] Like other members of Drosera sect. Arachnopus it is an annual therophyte.[2]
The species name serpens is from Latin meaning 'snake' or 'creeping thing' and refers to the scrambling habit of the plant.[3]
