Twenty five new species and five new subspecies of Scholtzia are described: S. bellairsiorum Rye, S. brevistylis Rye, S. brevistylis subsp. prowaka Rye, S. calcicola Rye, S. chapmanii Trudgen ex Rye, S. cordata Trudgen ex Rye, S. corrugata Rye, S. denticulata Rye, S. halophila Rye, S. halophila subsp. meridionalis Rye, S. halophila subsp. mortlockensis Rye, S. inaequalis Rye, S. laciniata Rye, S. longipedata Rye, S. longipedata subsp. procera Rye, S. multiflora Rye, S. oleosa Rye, S. peltigera Rye, S. pentamera Rye, S. pentamera subsp. collina Rye, S. prostrata Rye, S. quindecim Rye, S. recurva Rye, S. subsessilis Rye, S. tenuissima Rye, S. thinicola Rye, S. trilocularis Rye, S. truncata Rye, S. uniflora Rye and S. uniovulata Rye. Scholtzia sp. Shark Bay (M.E. Trudgen 7429) is reduced to synonymy under S. capitata Benth. and most of the other phrase names in the genus are treated as synonyms of the above new taxa. A key is given to aid the identification of approximately 40 species and subspecies. Most taxa have conservation priority.
