There is no way to tell which species of Drosera this is without flowers, or which of Drosera auriculata or Drosera peltata without a good photo showing the outside of the sepals (which cup the flower).

I found a large colony of these today at my local nature reserve! They are so cool. Will be reporting to CNM soon...
