Acmena was formerly the name of a genus of shrubs and trees in the myrtle family Myrtaceae. The genus was first formally described in 1828 by Augustin Pyramus de Candolle in his Prodromus Systematis Naturalis Regni Vegetabilis . [1] [2]
The species included:
Dillwynia tenuifolia is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern New South Wales. It is an erect shrub with linear leaves, and orange-yellow and red flowers.
Melaleuca paludicola, commonly known as river bottlebrush, is a plant in the myrtle family Myrtaceae, and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is a shrub or small tree with flexible, often drooping branches, pinkish new growth and spikes of cream, pale yellow, or sometimes pink flowers in summer.
Actinotus minor, commonly known as the lesser flannel flower, is species of flowering plant in the family Apiaceae and is endemic to New South Wales. It is a small, sprawling plant with grey-green leaves and white flowers.
Drosera petiolaris is a carnivorous plant in the genus Drosera and is the eponymous species of the petiolaris species complex, which mostly refers to the entire subgenus Lasiocephala. It is native to Northern Australia, including the northern regions of Western Australia, the Northern Territory, and Queensland, and New Guinea; this distribution is the largest in the subgenus and the only that extends beyond Australia. Its leaves are arranged in a compact basal rosette with long, narrow petioles emerging from the center of the rosette. Carnivorous leaves are held at the end of the petiole with long retentive glands.
Beaufortia sprengelioides is a species of flowering plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae and is endemic to the southwest of Western Australia. It is a rigid, spreading shrub with crowded, round leaves and small, roughly spherical heads of pale pink flowers on the ends of its branches. It was one of the first Australian plant species collected by Europeans and has had several name changes since then.
Calytrix decandra, commonly known as pink starflower, is a species of flowering plant in the myrtle family Myrtaceae and is endemic to the south of Western Australia. It is a semi-prostrate, glabrous shrub with linear to narrowly elliptic leaves and pink, mauve or magenta flowers with usually 10 stamens in a single row.
Calytrix exstipulata, commonly known as turkey bush, Kimberley heather, heather bush or pink fringe-myrtle, is a species of flowering plant in the myrtle family Myrtaceae and is endemic to northern Australia. It is an erect shrub with narrowly egg-shaped to elliptic leaves and clusters of dark red, pink and white flowers with mainly pink stamens.
Tremandra is a genus of flowering plants in the family Elaeocarpaceae. It contains two species, both endemic to Western Australia.
Tremandra stelligera is a flowering plant in the family Elaeocarpaceae. It is a small upright shrub with pink, purple or blue flowers, dark green oval shaped leaves and is endemic to Western Australia.
Dillwynia acicularis is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to New South Wales. It is an erect shrub with linear, grooved leaves and yellow flowers with red markings.
Dillwynia rudis is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern New South Wales. It is an erect shrub with warty, linear leaves and yellow to orange flowers with red veins.
Pultenaea euchila, commonly known as orange pultenaea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is an erect shrub with glabrous foliage, narrow egg-shaped leaves with the narrower end towards the base, and orange-coloured flowers arranged singly or in small groups near the ends of branchlets.
Pultenaea microphylla is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is an erect to prostrate shrub with narrow egg-shaped leaves with the narrower end towards the base, and clusters of up to ten yellow to red flowers with reddish markings.
Gompholobium confertum is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It a shrub that typically grows to a height of .15–1.2 m and flowers from August to December or January to March producing purple-blue, pea-like flowers. This species was first formally described in 1825 by Augustin Pyramus de Candolle who gave it the name Burtonia conferta in Prodromus Systematis Naturalis Regni Vegetabilis. In 1987 Michael Douglas Crisp changed the name to Gompholobium confertum. The specific epithet (confertum) means "crowded", referring to the foliage.
Bossiaea lenticularis is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern New South Wales. It is a slender, spreading shrub with mostly circular leaves, and yellow and red flowers.
Podolobium scandens, commonly known as netted shaggy-pea, is a flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is a prostrate, small shrub with orange-yellow pea-like flowers and red markings.
Gompholobium virgatum, commonly known as leafy wedge pea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is an erect or sprawling shrub with trifoliate leaves, the leaflets narrow egg-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, and yellow and greenish, pea-like flowers.
Pandorea floribunda is a species of flowering plant in the family Bignoniaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is similar to Pandorea pandorana but the leaflets are egg-shaped, 30–80 mm (1.2–3.1 in) long and 15–50 mm (0.59–1.97 in) wide and the flowers are pale yellow to cream-coloured.
Bauera capitata is a species of flowering plant in the family Cunoniaceae and is endemic to coastal eastern Australia. It is a small shrub with trifoliate, usually lobed leaves and sessile, deep pink flowers with twelve to fifteen stamens.
