Euchiton traversii, commonly known as mat cudweed, is a small, woolly, alpine rosette herb. It forms a mat-like habit, hence the common name, in alpine wet heath and grasslands. The species is found in Australia—in Tasmania, Victoria, New South Wales, Australian Capital Territory—and the North and South Islands of New Zealand.
