Distribution: In Canaries it appears in Great Canary, Tenerife, The Gomera and the Palm (Macoronesic region).  In the Peninsula Iberica the appointments are exclusively of two localities:  Ourense (Eurosiberian region) and Cadiz (Mediterranean region).
Habitat: In Cadiz develops among hygronotrophilus herbals of Trifolium-Caricentum chaetophyllae, with Mentha rotundifolia, Lybrum portula, Robus ulmifolius, Trifolium repens, Ranunculus ficaria and Veronica anagallis-aquatica.  In Orense it grew on walls of granite (Asplenietea tricomanis) connected with emergences of thermal water.  In both situations the potential control is of alder trees.
