The Western Australian Herbarium’s collections management system, WAHerb, and DBCA’s taxonomic names application, WACensus, have been set to read-only mode since 1 October 2025. Recent taxonomic changes are not reflected in Florabase, herbarium collections, or in the census. We are hoping to be able to reinstate services around December 15; we will provide an update at that time.
The notice period started at 9:00 am on Wednesday, 1 October 2025 +08:00 and will end at 12:00 pm on Monday, 15 December 2025 +08:00.
A new species of Epacridaceae endemic to the South West Botanical Province of Western Australia, Conostephium magnum Cranfield, is described, illustrated and mapped. It is related to C. minus Lindl. and C. pendulum Benth.
