Phycopsis
Drosera binata, commonly known as the forked sundew or fork-leaved sundew. It is a large, perennial sundew native to south-eastern Australia and New Zealand. The specific epithet is Latin for "having pairs", a reference to the leaves, which are dichotomously (sometimes twice-dichotomously) divided or forked. These leaves are up to 60 cm (24 in) long.
Like all sundews, it is a carnivorous plant. It is unique among sundews in having narrow, branching leaves. It is the only species in the Drosera section Phycopsis.
