Batis maritima (yellow),Sesuvium edmonstonei(red), and Portulaca howellii (gray)
Commentary :
Bain Bridge Islet has a small salt lake in its crater, around which a typical zonation of salt- and drought-tolerant plants is seen. The plants are arranged from saltwort (Batis maritima, yellow) in the foreground, through to Galapagos carpetweed (Sesuvium edmonstonei; an endemic species, red), Galapagos purslane (Portulaca howellii; endemic), and Galapagos chamaesyce (Chamaesyce amplexicaulis; endemic, brown) in the background.
