Dudleya cymosa subsp. agourensis, also known as the Agoura Hills dudleya or Agoura Hills liveforever, is a rare and critically imperiled species of perennial succulent plant found in the Santa Monica Mountains in California. It has glaucous, gray-purple leaves, bright yellow flowers, and ascending bracts. This species was previously considered a distinct race within Dudleya cymosa subsp. ovatifolia, but was later described as a separate subspecies due to its unique leaf morphology, branching caudex, and flower and inflorescence characteristics. It is listed as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act and is primarily threatened by development, trampling, invasive plants, and illegal dumping. This plant grows in a caespitose habit with rosettes on a branching stem, and can be found on open, rocky volcanic slopes facing west to northwest. It is endemic to California and is only found in a small area in the Santa Monica Mountains. Flowering occurs from May to June and the chromosome count is n = 17.
