10 #Myrtaceae genera have been newly added to the online #FloraOfAustralia – Aluta, Anticoryne, Astartea, Astus, Austrobaeckea, Balaustion, Cheyniana, Enekbatus, Ericomyrtus and Euryomyrtus. That’s >100 taxon profiles available at https://profiles.ala.org.au/opus/foa/profile/Myrtaceae
It's been a pleasure to work with Myrtaceae maven Barbara Rye to mobilise this research with the help of #WAHerbarium recruit Charlotte Ely.
Project funded via an Australian Biological Resources Study grant. More to come! #Taxonomy

Today we bid farewell to the monotypic Western Australian genus Corynanthera (represented by C. flava), which has been transferred to Micromyrtus by #Myrtaceae stalwarts Barbara Rye and Peter Wilson https://florabase.dpaw.wa.gov.au/science/nuytsia/1040.pdf
I recently photographed this species in Watheroo National Park with Charlotte Ely, who made the first collection for #WAHerbarium since 2005 #Botany #Taxonomy #AustralianPlants
