Killickia compacta is a rare species of Killickia sometimes called matting bergmint. It is endemic to South Africa′s KwaZulu-Natal province, and is found in only two locations in the central Drakensberg mountains around Cathkin Peak, at around 2,300 m (7,500 ft) in altitude. Although highly localised, it is not considered threatened.
