Andersonia annelsii | |
Andersonia annelsii is a species of flowering plant in the family Ericaceae and is endemic to a restricted part of the southwest of Western Australia. It is a low shrub with egg-shaped to round leaves and white, tube-shaped flowers.
Andersonia annelsii is a low shrub that typically grows to a height of 15–25 cm (5.9–9.8 in) and has low-lying stems. The leaves are widely egg-shaped to round, 2–5 mm (0.079–0.197 in) in diameter. The flowers are arranged in clusters of 3 to 8 with sepals that are linear, 10.0–12.0 mm (0.39–0.47 in) long, yellow to pink in bud, later white. The petals are tube-shaped, 11–14 mm (0.43–0.55 in) long and white with lobes turned back or rolled back and 4–5 mm (0.16–0.20 in) long. The stamens are 9.0–11.0 mm (0.35–0.43 in) long, the anthers white or yellow. [2] [3]
Andersonia annelsii was first formally described in 2007 by Kristina L. Lemson in the journal Nuytsia from specimens collected in the Manjimup area in 1990. [2] [4] The specific epithet (annelsii) honours the botanist Tony Annels. [2]
This species of Andersonia grows in sandy loam near granite rocks and is only known from the Tone-Perup Nature Reserve near Manjimup. [2]
Andersonia annelsii is listed as threatened flora under the Wildlife Conservation (Rare Flora) Notice 2018 [5] and the Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016 . [6]
