| Richea
procera is an erect shrub found in scrubby vegetation
on poor soils in wet, lowland areas in Southern Tasmania
(e.g. on peat on sandstones, or in the south-west).
It can be confused with two alpine species
R. acerosa (which has narrow leaves)
and R.
sprengelioides, in which the most mature
flowers are at the top of the inflorescence.
