    I found this small Orobranche a month ago on a number of sites in Cyprus. The plant is small, ca 10 cm and in most cases it seems to be a parasite to Oxalis pes-caprae, but also some other (still vegatative) plants were candidates.
    I think it can be an invasive species in some countries.

    It is possibly O. nana, but there are some similar sp. too.
