Myosotis brockiei subsp. brockiei is a subspecies of flowering plant in the family Boraginaceae, endemic to southern South Island of New Zealand. Lucy Moore and Margaret Simpson described M. brockiei in 1973. Plants of this subspecies of forget-me-not are perennial rosettes which form caespitose tufts or clumps, with ebracteate, erect inflorescences, and white corollas with exserted stamens. Taxonomy and etymology Myosotis brockiei L.B.Moore & M.J.A.Simpson subsp. brockiei is in the plant family Boraginaceae. The species M. brockiei was described by Lucy Moore and Margaret Simpson in 1973. The holotype specimen of Myosotis brockiei was collected from Gorge of the Cobb River, Western Nelson, South Island, New Zealand by W.B. Brockie and is lodged at Manaaki Whenua - Landcare Research Allan Herbarium (CHR 233859/A), where there is also an isotype (CHR 233860). The specific epithet, brockiei, honors the collector of the type specimen, Walter Boa Brockie (1897–1972) who was a New Zealand botanist and horticulturist. This is one of two subspecies recognized in M. brockiei; the other is M. brockiei subsp. dysis. The subspecies are allopatric, as M. brockiei subsp. brockiei is found at higher elevations in montane and subalpine in habitats with limestone or other calcicolous or ultramafic substrates, whereas
