Service Notice

The Western Australian Herbarium’s collections management system, WAHerb, and DBCA’s flora taxonomic names application, WACensus, have been set to read-only mode since 1 October 2025. Recent taxonomic changes are not currently being reflected in Florabase, herbarium collections, or the census. Due to the rapidly approaching holiday season and associated agency and facility soft closures, along with the substantial work involved in data mapping, cleaning, and verification, the migration to the new collection management software is not expected to occur before 1 March 2026, when a further update will be provided. Please reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns.

The notice period started at 9:45 am on Friday, 12 December 2025 +08:00 and will end at 12:00 pm on Monday, 2 March 2026 +08:00.

Recognition of new taxa in Grevillea (Proteaceae: Grevilleoideae) from south-west Western Australia
OLDE, PETER M. AND MARRIOTT, NEIL R.

In this paper we recognise one new Grevillea species, Grevillea hislopii P.M.Olde & N.R.Marriott and two new subspecies, Grevillea althoferorum P.M.Olde & N.R.Marriott subsp. fragilis P.M.Olde & N.R.Marriott and Grevillea bracteosa C.F.Meisn. subsp. howatharra P.M.Olde & N.R.Marriott. All taxa occur in south-west Western Australia. Morphological analysis suggests that the taxa are not closely related. Interspecific and intraspecific keys are provided and affinities are discussed where relevant. Some of the taxa have a conservation priority and Conservation Codes are provided in all cases.
