Drosera nivea is a species of carnivorous plant. It is a pygmy sundew and is native to Western Australia. The specific epithet nivea is derived from the Latin word niveus, meaning white, in reference to the colour of the plant's flower.[3] It is closely related to Drosera citrina and has previously been considered a variety of D.citrina known as D. citrina var. nivea.[2]
