Erodium astragaloides is a species of flowering plant in the geranium family endemic to Sierra Nevada, southern Spain.

Habitat

The rather distinctive species can grow in sparse grasslands on less developed rocky-sandy dolomitic soils. It is associated with Juniperus phoenicea, as a part of communities which are rich at endemic species, such as Rothmaleria granatensis, Helianthemum pannosum, Silene boryi, Convolvulus boissieri, Anthyllis tejedensis, Thymus granatensis, and Saxifraga erioblasta.
