Nymphoides geminata, commonly known as entire marshwort, is an aquatic plant of the family Menyanthaceae native to eastern Australia. [1]

Ptilotus macrocephalus is a native Australian perennial herb growing up to 50 centimetres (20 in) high. The species was originally described as Trichinium macrocephalum by Robert Brown in 1810 based on specimens from Victoria, Australia. In 1816, it was first transferred to the genus Ptilotus by Jean Louis Marie Poiret. While once considered distributed throughout most of the Australian mainland, current research limits the distribution of P. macrocephalus to south-eastern Australia, mostly in south-eastern South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales. A study by Hammer et al. (2019) determined that specimens previously identified as P. macrocephalus are morphologically and ecologically distinct species, the now named Ptilotus xerophilusT.Hammer & R.W.Davis and Ptilotus psilorhachisT.Hammer & R.W.Davis.
