Amyema Tiegh. (Loranthaceae) is a genus of aerial hemiparasites that grow on the branches of host plants, obtaining water and nutrients from their host via a specialised vascular connection (an haustorium) while producing some of their own carbohydrates by photosynthesis (Lamont & Southall 1982; Lamont 1983; Pate 1995). Of the 40 species currently recorded in Australia, 23 occur in Western Australia (Western Australian Herbarium 1998–; Council of Heads of Australasian Herbaria 2006–) including the new species described below, which has only been recorded growing on Acacia xiphophylla E.Pritz. (Snakewood). This in itself is unusual: relatively few species of Amyema occur on only one species of host, although some are host specific at a regional level (Start 2015) and many have a narrow range of host species or are restricted to a particular genus (Barlow 1984; Downey 1998; Start 2011, 2013, 2015). The only other species in Loranthaceae that have been recorded on Snakewood are Lysiana casuarinae (Miq.) Tiegh. s. lat. (Downey 1998: A.A. Mitchell 4730, PERTH 05096103; B. Backhouse et al. BEM 223, PERTH 05465591) and L. murrayi (F.Muell. & Tate) Tiegh. (S. van Leeuwen 5045, PERTH 07615418).

Stenanthera localis Hislop sp. nov. is the second Western Australian member of the recently reinstated genus Stenanthera R.Br. (see Puente-Lelièvre et al. 2016) to be formally described. The first, S. pungens (Keighery) Hislop, was originally published as a Conostephium Benth. (Keighery 2002) before its transfer to Stenanthera (Hislop 2016). Both species are currently known only from a single population, but whereas the population of S. pungens is large, consisting of at least several hundred plants within a nature reserve, S. localis is known from less than 50 individuals spread between a crown and a shire reserve and as such has recently been nominated for listing as Critically Endangered.

I chanced upon the new triggerplant described below during a brief sojourn in Dragon Rocks Nature Reserve in 2017, on the final day of a broad-ranging field expedition in south-western Australia with my long-time colleague and confidant Dr Kelly Shepherd. As we enthusiastically made a collection of what I believed to be a novel discovery, I began to vaguely recall a collection from this area at the Western Australian Herbarium (PERTH) that I had previously been unable to assign to a known species. This suspicion was confirmed upon my return to the Herbarium, where I was able to match my discovery to material collected by Anne Rick (nee Coates) in 1991 during a flora and vegetation survey of the same reserve (Coates 1992, then as S. breviscapum R.Br.: A. Coates 3234 and 3378). This new rarity is allied to the ‘Boomerang Triggerplants’ (see Affinities below) and is named for Kelly, who has been steadfast in her support of my Stylidiaceae research program over the past 25 years.
2017年，在与我的长期同事和密友凯利·谢泼德博士(Kelly Shepherd)在澳大利亚西南部进行一次广泛的野外考察的最后一天，我在龙岩自然保护区(Dragon Rocks Nature Reserve)短暂逗留期间，偶然发现了下面描述的这种新的触发植物。当我们满怀热情地收集我认为是一个新发现的东西时，我开始模糊地回忆起西澳大利亚植物标本馆(PERTH)在这个地区收集的一种标本，我以前无法将其归类为已知的物种。这种怀疑在我回到植物标本馆后得到了证实，在那里，我能够将我的发现与Anne Rick (nee Coates) 1991年在同一保护区进行植物和植被调查时收集的材料相匹配(Coates 1992，当时称为S. breviscapum R.Br: a . Coates 3234和3378)。这种新的稀有植物与“回旋镖触发植物”(见下面的亲缘关系)有关，并以凯利的名字命名，她在过去的25年里一直坚定地支持我的柱头科研究项目。

The new species described below is currently only known from a single herbarium specimen (Figure 1) collected in 2011 from south-east of Mt Walton in the Coolgardie bioregion. Only one plant growing near a gravel pit was observed, and the surrounding vegetation had been burnt a few years previously. Recent searches of this site and surrounding areas have failed to relocate this species suggesting that it might be a short-lived disturbance opportunist, proliferating following a disturbance such as fire and then declining over time like many other members of Goodeniaceae (Sage 2003). Alternatively, it could be a relatively long-lived but genuinely rare species. In either case, it may be many years before additional collections are made, particularly given the region is remote and relatively inaccessible, so we have decided to describe this species despite the limited material. While this is not optimal taxonomic practice, we believe that its distinctive translucent sepals and unique corolla indumentum put its novel status beyond doubt, and that its description will improve the chances of its rediscovery in the wild.

The district of Mount Holland, immediately to the north of Forrestania, lies to the east of the Western Australian wheatbelt in the far south-west of the Coolgardie bioregion. Recent botanical surveys associated with a large mining project in this area have led to the recognition of six new plant species, of which Acacia lachnocarpa R.W.Davis & Hislop was recently published (Davis & Hislop 2020). Another, a species from the tribe Westringieae Bartl. (Lamiaceae), is described below as Microcorys elatoides T.C.Wilson & Hislop. That so many new taxa have been discovered in a restricted part of Mount Holland is indicative that the flora in this district remains poorly known.
