"Utricularia circumvoluta" is a medium-sized, probably annual, carnivorous plant that belongs to the genus "Utricularia". It is endemic to the Northern Territory and Queensland, Australia. "U. circumvoluta" grows as a terrestrial plant in swamps and near streams or lagoons, usually in shallow water in the company of tall grasses and sedges, which its inflorescence twines up. It was originally described and published by Peter Taylor in 1986. It somewhat resembles "U. scandens", which it had been confused for in the past.Taylor, Peter. (1989).
