Scaevola enantophylla, commonly known as climbing fan-flower, [3] is a species of flowering plant in the family Goodeniaceae and is endemic to Queensland. It is a scrambling vine with yellow fan-shaped flowers, and the only species in the genus with leaves arranged opposite.
Scaevola enantophylla is a scrambling vine up to 4 m (13 ft) long, it may be smooth or with soft, short hairs. The leaves are egg-shaped to lance-shaped, finely toothed, arranged opposite, 4–15 cm (1.6–5.9 in) long, 20–60 mm (0.79–2.36 in) wide, tapering to a point on a short petiole. The fan-shaped flowers are borne in cymes in leaf axils on a peduncle up to 16 mm (0.63 in) long, bracteoles triangular shaped, usually up to 1 mm (0.039 in) long, and each flower on a pedicel up to 5 mm (0.20 in) long. The yellow corolla 14–20 mm (0.55–0.79 in) long, smooth on the outside, thickly bearded on the inside, and the wings up to 1.5 mm (0.059 in) wide. Flowering occurs from July to November and the fruit narrowly egg-shaped, black, 10–12 mm (0.39–0.47 in) long, smooth or with occasional hairs. [3] [4]
