Terrestrial or lithophyte. Scape, bracts, bracteoles, pedicels and sepals covered with eglandular and long-stalked glandular trichomes. Slender and flexible scape. Abruptly recurved pedicels in fruits. White corolla with purple streaks on the upper lip, purple spur, yellow and gibbous palate, glabrous lips with divided lobe tips, bilobed upper lip, trilobed lower lip, sparsely eglandular and glandular and obtuse spur, longer than the lower lip and parallel to the pedicel. Bivalvate capsule, covered with eglandular and long-stalked glandular trichomes.

Selected material: — Santa Teresinha , Ápice da Serra, mata da antena de televisão, 09 October 2010, fl. and fr., E. Melo 8571 ( HUEFS) .

Comments:— Genlisea lobata can be readily distinguished from the other congeners by its white corolla with purple streaks on the upper lip, lips with divided lobe tips and abruptly recurved pedicels in fruits. This is the northernmost known record of the species, restricted to granite/gnaissic outcrops, and also the northernmost occurrence of any member of G. subgen. Tayloria .
