Gentianella tenella; The slender gentian can be found on soils with ample water contents, like pastures and river banks. It can be found in the northern regions of Iceland as well as the interior highlands. Strangely it is missing in the southern and south-western regions of Iceland.
It is a member of the gentian family (Gentianellaceae).
