Brachyloma stenolobum (Ericaceae: Styphelioideae: Styphelieae), a new, white-flowered species for Western Australia

HISLOP, M. AND CRANFIELD, R.J., Nuytsia 24: 255–261 (2014)

Details PDF
A new member of Brachyloma Sond. sect. Lissanthoides Benth. is described and illustrated. Two keys are presented: an interim key to the Western Australian species of Brachyloma, and an Australia-wide key to the species of sect. Lissanthoides. The presence of two lineages in the genus, distinguished by molecular phylogenetics and morphology, is discussed, and the case for future elevation of sect. Lissanthoides to generic status is examined.
