Taxonomic clarification of the Lomandra odora group (Xanthorrhoeaceae or Dasypogonaceae)
MACFARLANE, T.D.

Three species are recognised in the Lomandra odora group, two of them new: L. odora (Endl.) Ewart, L. nigricans T. D. Macfarlane and L. integra T. D. Macfarlane. The name L. endlicheri (F. Muell.) Ewart is illegitimate; it has often been applied to each of the three species recognised here. Descriptions, photographs of specimens, distribution maps and a key to the three species are provided.
