“…Other increases in the number of named species recorded for Western Australia have resulted from the discovery that C. gypsophylla Craven extends into Western Australia (previously known only from South Australia), the reapplication of the name C. watsonii (F.Muell. & Tate) C.A.Gardner, which is formally reinstated here, and the description of one new species from the Kimberley region (Barrett et al 2009). By 2010, the number of named Western Australian species recognised on FloraBase (Western Australian Herbarium 1998-) had therefore risen to 60.…”

“…While only three such species are currently recognised for Western Australia, Craven (1990) noted that C. exstipulata had many variants, especially in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, and discussed several instances of the co-occurrence of variants within this very difficult complex. It also appears that the limits of this alliance need to be enlarged to allow inclusion of the Kimberley species, C. gomphrenoides M.D.Barrett & Craven, which has fewer stamens in a single series (see Barrett et al 2009).

B.L. Rye. An update to the taxonomy of some Western Australian genera of Myrtaceae tribe Chamelaucieae. 1. Calytrix. Nuytsia 23: 483-501 (2013). Calytrix watsonii (F.Muell. & Tate) C.A.Gardner is reinstated and four species with conservation priority are described: C. hislopii Rye, C. patrickiae Rye, C. sagei Rye and C. viscida Rye. Keys are given for the species groups that include these taxa. The current study has eliminated about half of the informal names that have been in use for Western Australian members of the genus. Several species complexes that need further study are noted. GroupInformal name Year Outcome C. acutifolia complex

“…Erythrophleum arenarium R.L.Barrett & M.D.Barrett is restricted to the Dampier Botanical District and Great Sandy Desert in Western Australia. Erythrophleum arenarium joins a growing number of species recognised as endemic to the sand communities of the Pindan and Great Sandy Desert, and distinct from their savanna counterparts ; Barrett and Telford 2015;Barrett 2015Barrett , 2016Barrett , 2019Barrett et al 2015aBarrett et al , 2015b. The flora of northern Australia remains poorly studied and new species from the region, including shrubs and trees, are still being described on a regular basis (e.g.…”

The genus Erythrophleum Afzel ex R.Br. is revised for Australia and three species are recognised, all previously included in E. chlorostachys (F.Muell.) Baill. Erythrophleum arenarium R.L.Barrett & M.D.Barrett is described as a new species to accommodate populations from desert sands of the Great Sandy Desert and Dampier Botanical Districts in north-western Australia, parapatric to the remaining species. Erythrophleum pubescens R.L.Barrett & M.D.Barrett is described as a new species spanning tropical Australia, and is sympatric with E. chlorostachys sensu stricto in the Northern Territory and adjacent areas of Western Australia and Queensland. Morphological examination has shown these three taxa to be consistently distinct across their respective ranges. Analyses of the nuclear ribosomal ITS1 region recovered three well-supported clades corresponding to the three morphologically defined species, and ITS1 has utility as a marker to separate sterile specimens. Erythrophleum pubescens is widespread in the Australian Monsoon Tropics, from the coast of Western Australia, near Derby, to Cape York Peninsula in northern Queensland. Erythrophleum chlorostachys is also widespread, from the eastern Kimberley Region, in Western Australia, to the Gulf of Carpentaria, in northern Queensland. A lectotype is chosen for Laboucheria chlorostachya F.Muell. Full descriptions, illustrations of key features and identification keys are provided for the three Australian species. A summary of the significant utilisation of Erythrophleum species is presented.

While most of these habitats occur in the higher rainfall zone of the north-west Kimberley, a number of locally endemic species are also found on sandstone and limestone habitats in the south-east Kimberley (Figure 12).…”

Barrett, R.L. Fifty new species of vascular plants from Western Australia-celebrating fifty years of the Western Australian Botanic Garden at Kings Park. Nuytsia 26: 3-20 (2015). This paper introduces a special issue of Nuytsia containing seven collaborative papers naming 50 new species of Western Australian vascular plants. It has been compiled to celebrate the 50 th anniversary of the opening of the Western Australian Botanic Garden at Kings Park. Several species are named after former Kings Park staff to honour their contributions to botany in Western Australia, including one that occurs naturally in the Kings Park bushland and is named after one of the designers of the Botanic Garden. Field research by Kings Park staff across Western Australia, including the rediscovery of Auranticarpa resinosa (Domin) L.W.Cayzer, Crisp & I.Telford, missing for 180 years, is documented.
