Western Australian members of the myrtaceous genus Darwinia Rudge s. lat. belong to sect. Genetyllis (DC.) Benth. & Hook.f. and number more than 60 species and subspecies (Western Australian Herbarium 1998–). They range from tiny-flowered, insect-pollinated species to spectacular bird-pollinated ones, with many species highly prized in cultivation. The best-known species are arguably the stunning mountain bells of the Stirling Range (see Keighery 1985), which have large, colourful bracts closely surrounding elongated flowers, but even species with small flowers tend to be very attractive when the flowers are massed into head-like clusters.

This new species was first collected in 1995 near Cape Riche on the south coast of Western Australia but its taxonomic status has remained unresolved, in part due to a lack of adequate material. Over the following 25 years, a further 35 specimens of this species and its closest allies were collected during regional surveys or through targeted field research and submitted to the Western Australian Herbarium (Western Australian Herbarium 1998–). Access to this additional material has ultimately facilitated its taxonomic resolution.

In their revision of Gompholobium Sm. (Mirbelieae: Fabaceae), Chappill et al. (2008) noted that populations of G. villosum (Meisn.) Crisp from the Stirling Range differed from the typical form of the species in a number of respects. Recent field observations together with herbarium-based research have indicated that they should be recognised as a distinct species, described below, 118 years after it was first collected by Alexander Morrison in 1902.

The Pilbara Foxglove, described below, is one of only three species from the Pilbara bioregion to be recognised as Threatened (Smith & Jones 2018; Western Australian Herbarium 1998–); however, given the highly prospective nature of the region’s geology, and the presence of many other apparent, short-range endemics, it seems likely that this number will grow in the coming years. Although first detected in 2002, material of this new species was not submitted to the Western Australian Herbarium until 2010. At that time it was confirmed as taxonomically distinct and was added to Western Australia’s vascular plant census under the phrase name Pityrodia sp. Marble Bar (G. Woodman & D. Coultas GWDC Opp 4) (Western Australian Herbarium 1998−). Recent phylogenetic analyses of nuclear ITS and chloroplast ndhF molecular sequence data (M.D. Barrett unpubl. data) confirm that this species, along with the related P. obliqua W.Fitzg., actually belong to the reinstated genus Quoya Gaudich. (Conn et al. 2011). While rare, this species is relatively easy to recognise in the field due to its height, the distinctive colour of its leaves and the fact that it grows in narrow zones along steep rocky slopes of a specific landform.
下面描述的皮尔巴拉毛地黄是皮尔巴拉生物地区仅有的三种被认为是受威胁物种之一(Smith & Jones 2018;西澳大利亚植物标本室，1998 -);然而，考虑到该地区地质的高度前景，以及许多其他明显的短程地方性疾病的存在，这一数字在未来几年似乎还会增长。虽然在2002年首次发现，但直到2010年才向西澳大利亚植物标本室提交了该新种的材料。当时，它被证实在分类上是独特的，并被添加到西澳大利亚的维管植物普查中，命名为Pityrodia sp. Marble Bar (G. Woodman & D. Coultas GWDC Opp 4) (Western Australian Herbarium 1998−)。核ITS和叶绿体的系统发育分析及dhf分子序列数据(M.D. Barrett unpubet)。数据)证实了这一物种，以及相关的P. obliqua W.Fitzg。，实际上属于恢复的科亚高迪奇属。(Conn et al. 2011)。虽然罕见，但由于它的高度，叶子的独特颜色以及它生长在特定地形陡峭的岩石斜坡上的狭窄地带，因此在野外相对容易识别。

Acacia Mill. is one of Australia’s most iconic plant groups and has long been the subject of highly focused taxonomic research (largely by Bruce Maslin, Richard Cowan and Les Pedley). Over the past 50 years, this research has led to the description of 390 new Western Australian taxa, of which 180 are conservation-listed (Western Australian Herbarium 1998–). There are still 75 informally named taxa in Western Australia that require further taxonomic research, including several recent discoveries of potentially rare taxa such as the species dealt with in this paper.

Members of the genus Beyeria Miq. (Euphorbiaceae: Ricinocarpeae: Ricinocarpinae) are shrubs with mostly small, greenish and inconspicuous, unisexual flowers. In many species all parts of the plants, including the flowers, are thickly coated in resin. The combination of being easily overlooked in the field and having flowers that are difficult to interpret in the dried condition may partly explain why almost half of the currently recognised Western Australian taxa were only described in a recent revision of the genus (Halford & Henderson 2008). Other contributory factors are likely to be an apparently high level of short-range endemism in the genus and the fact that Western Australia has never had a local taxonomist specialising in Euphorbiaceae. The only additions to the western Beyeria in the twentieth century were made by the distinguished English botanist, Herbert Airy Shaw (1971).

Wurmbea densiflora (Benth.) T.Macfarlane (Colchicaceae) is an attractive, small geophyte bearing several pink flowers, occurring in the northern Wheatbelt and adjacent rangelands of Western Australia. However, the species concept used in a revision of Wurmbea Thunb. in Australia (Macfarlane 1980, 1987) proves to be a mixture of two species, W. densiflora in the original sense of Bentham (1878) and a later-flowering, undescribed species. This second species was given the phrase name W. sp. Paynes Find (C.J. French 1237), by which it has been known for some time (Western Australian Herbarium 1998–). The new species, having been well-researched in the field and Herbarium, is formally described below. The previous confusion between the two species was partly due to a lack of field knowledge and an inadequate appreciation of the relatively constrained flowering times of Wurmbea species.

Several species of ‘Lamb’s Poison’ (Isotropis Benth.: Mirbelieae, Fabaceae) have been reported as toxic to stock including I. forrestii F.Muell. (Bennetts 1935; Gardner & Bennetts 1952, 1956; Gardiner & Royce 1967; Cooper et al. 1986). According to Gardiner and Royce (1967: 512) ‘...in mid-October 1966, studies were made of I. forrestii, ingestion of which had just caused the death of 10 cattle on a station near Wiluna in the East Murchison division. Seeds of the variety were found in the rumen contents, and extracts of the plant produced acute death and typical renal damage in guinea-pigs’. Cooper et al. (1986) went on to demonstrate nephrotoxicity in sheep using dried and milled I. forrestii obtained from the Western Australian Department of Agriculture, noting that this material was originally collected from a Meekatharra farm after an outbreak of Isotropis poisoning in sheep. The toxic compound that caused the renal failure was subsequently extracted, found to be novel, and named Iforrestine (Colegate et al. 1989).
几种“羊毒”(Isotropis Benth)。据报道，紫菀科(Mirbelieae, Fabaceae)对包括紫菀(I. forestii F.Muell)在内的植物有毒。(斑尼特1935;Gardner & bennett 1952,1956;Gardiner & Royce 1967;Cooper et al. 1986)。根据加德纳和罗伊斯(1967:512)“……1966年10月中旬，对森林乳杆菌进行了研究，在东默奇森省威鲁纳附近的一个车站，由于摄入了森林乳杆菌，刚刚造成10头牛死亡。在豚鼠的瘤胃内容物中发现了该品种的种子，该植物的提取物会导致豚鼠急性死亡和典型的肾损伤。Cooper等人(1986)使用从西澳大利亚农业部获得的干燥和碾磨的森林杉来证明绵羊的肾毒性，并指出这种材料最初是在绵羊中爆发Isotropis中毒后从Meekatharra农场收集的。导致肾功能衰竭的有毒化合物随后被提取出来，发现是新的，并命名为Iforrestine (Colegate et al. 1989)。
