Notes on the genus _Chrysocephalum (_Angianthinae: Asteraceae) with the description of one new species from Western Australia, and a new combination
WILSON, PAUL G.
The probability of the genus Chrysocephalum being paraphyletic is reviewed. Helichrysum gilesii F.Muell. is transferred to Chrysocephalum. A new species from the Gibson Desert, Western Australia is described and is compared with its close relative C. gilesii (F.Muell.) Paul G.Wilson. A widespread taxon from southern Australia which has been variously referred to as Chrysocephalum apiculatum (Labill.) Steetz or C. aff. apiculatum is shown to be C. vitellinum Sond.; this name is lectotypified. A key to the species of Chrysocephalum found in Western Australia is provided.
