Drosera viridis Rivadavia, a Brazilian endemic species of carnivorous herb, has its geographical range extended in&nbsp;South Brazil, including the first records for Rio Grande do Sul, from subtropical highland grasslands in the northeastern&nbsp;region of the state. Taxonomic notes, habitat information, an updated distribution range, and an identification&nbsp;key for the Drosera L. species from Rio Grande do Sul are presented. Based on the updated distributional range&nbsp;and potential threats in Brazil, we suggest the species to be classified as Near Threatened, following IUCN Red List&nbsp;categories and criteria.
