Four new Drosera taxa from south western Australia
LOWRIE, A. AND MARCHANT, N.G., Nuytsia 8 (3): 323–332 (1992)
Three new species and one new subspecies of Drosera (Droseraceae) are described, D. browniana and D. stolonifera subsp. monticola (both tuberous Drosera) and D. grievei and D. sargentii (both pygmy Drosera), all endemic to south western Australia. The distinguishing characters of each are presented as well as their relationships and an indication of habitat preferences and conservation status.

D. fulva Planchon is recognized as a valid species and is described in detail as well as illustrated. All these taxa are from tropical northern Australia and belong in Drosera sect. Lasiocephala. A key is provided to all species in sect. Lasiocephala.

A taxonomic revision of Drosera section Stolonifera (Droseraceae) from south-west Western Australia
LOWRIE, A., Nuytsia 15 (3): 355–394 (2005)
Ten species are recognized in the Drosera section Stolonifera: D. fimbriata DeBuhr, D. humilis Planchon, D. platypoda Turcz., D. porrecta Lehm., D. purpurascens Schlott., D. ramellosa Lehm., and D. stolonifera Endl., including three new combinations: D. monticola (Lowrie & Marchant) Lowrie, D. prostrata (Marchant & Lowrie) Lowrie and D. rupicola (Marchant) Lowrie. All are endemic to the south-west of Western Australia and belong in Drosera L. subgen. Ergaleium DC. sect. Stolonifera DeBuhr. Each taxon is described in detail as well as illustrated. A key is provided to all taxa in sect. Stolonifera. A schematic illustration of all ten species life-form is provided for comparison and cross referencing with each other. SEM micrographs of the seeds of each species, field and cultivation studies and historical investigations are also presented.
Drosera gibsonii (Droseraceae), a new Pygmy Drosera from south-west Western Australia
MANN, P., Nuytsia 16 (2): 321–323 (2007)
Drosera gibsonii (Drosera subgenus Rorella section Lamprolepis) is described from the Stirling Range National Park.

Typification and application of names in Drosera section Arachnopus
BARRETT, R.L. AND LOWRIE, A., Nuytsia 23: 527–541 (2013)
Taxonomic review of the Drosera indica L. (Droseraceae) complex requires the clarification of a number of published names. This paper is focussed on the application of names applying to taxa occurring in Australia. Two lectotypes are chosen and one neotype is designated for names historically listed as synonyms of D. indica. Drosera serpens Planch. and D. angustifolia F.Muell. are lectotypified. A neotype is selected for D. hexagynia Blanco as no original material is known. Drosera hexagynia is considered to be a synonym of D. indica. Drosera angustifolia and D. indica f. robusta F.M.Bailey are here considered to be synonyms of D. finlaysoniana Wall. ex. Arn. Drosera angustifolia var. purpuriflora F.Muell. ex Diels is an illegitimate name. Notes are provided on D. hartmeyerorum Schlauer, the only other named Australian taxon in this species complex. Characteristics of the seeds, anthers and glandular hairs are considered diagnostic at the species level. Illustrations of key identifying features and full descriptions of the Australian species are provided.
Severing the first head of the Hydra: Drosera actinioides, a new species from the D. paradoxa complex of D. sect. Lasiocephala (Droseraceae)
JUVE, N.O., FLEISCHMANN, A. AND KRUEGER, T., Nuytsia 36: 75–84 (2025)
Drosera actinioides Juve, A.Fleischm. & T.Krueger, a new species of D. sect. Lasiocephala Planch. from the Northern Kimberley bioregion (Western Australia), is described and illustrated. It can be distinguished from all known members of this section by its distinctive floral features comprising highly branched, blackish red styles and metallic orange petals, among other characters. Detailed notes on its ecology, distribution, and conservation status are provided.
