Pistorinia breviflora

It's very rare these days for me to find a new plant in our local areas, but perhaps I am not looking hard enough. I found a few specimens of these pretty little annual succulents yesterday at Grazalema. It grows from 6-14 cms tall and is native to Morocco and SW Spain. I believe that it is on the Red List for endangered plants in Andalucía.
