Pinguicula gypsicola is a unique insectivorous plant found in the Mexican state of San Luis Potosi. It belongs to the section Orcheosanthus and grows in gypsum soils, forming stemless rosettes of upright, narrow leaves. This perennial herb has two types of leaves - carnivorous leaves in the summer and non-carnivorous leaves in the winter. The carnivorous leaves are covered with glands that trap and digest insects for nutrients. The plant produces purple flowers on inflorescences in June or July. It is only found in a few areas near San Luis Potosí, growing alongside other xerophytic plants. Pinguicula gypsicola was first described in 1911 by botanist Townshend Stith Brandegee.
