Euryops arabicus is a species of flowering plant in the Asteraceae family that grows in the form of a bush. It is found on the Arabian Peninsula, Socotra, Somalia and Djibouti. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical dry shrubland.

Description

Euryops arabicus is a small shrub up to about {{convert|2|m|ft|0|abbr=on}} tall. The narrow lanceolate leaves are leathery and are concentrated towards the tips of the branches.[2]

Distribution and habitat

Euryops arabicus is found in the Arabian Peninsula where it grows in the cloud forest on north-facing slopes in montane woodland,[3] and it is also found on the higher parts of Socotra, in Somalia and Djibouti.[2]

Ecology

In Saudi Arabia it grows alongside Juniperus procera, draped with the lichen Usnea articulata.[3] It is unpalatable and may flourish in places where other shrubs are overgrazed.[4]
