It is an afromontane species, restricted to the mountains of northeastern Africa.[3][4]

Phylogeny

The phylogeny of the genera of Rhinantheae has been explored using molecular characters.[5][1][6][4][7] Hedbergia decurva groups with Hedbergia longiflora and Hedbergia abyssinica into a Hedbergia clade nested within the core Rhinantheae. These three taxa share evolutionary affinities with genera Tozzia, Bellardia, Neobartsia, Parentucellia, and Odontites.
