Drosera platystigma is named from the Greek platys (broad, flat, wide) and stigma (stigma), in reference to the broad, slightly flattened, stigma.

Drosera platystigma is known from Western Australia, with records from Albany, Bannister, Busselton; Pinjarra, Stirling Range and Ravensthorpe.

It grows in clayey sand or laterite and loam soils in open heath, or in open areas in Jarrah forest.
