| Styphelia stricta | |
Styphelia stricta is a small plant in the family Ericaceae. It is endemic to Western Australia.[1]
The species was described in 1868 as Leucopogon strictus by George Bentham.[2][3] In 1882, Ferdinand von Mueller transferred it to the genus, Styphelia,[4] to give the name accepted by the Western Australian Herbarium,[1][5] (because of the phylogenetic study by Darren Crayn and others).[6] This name is not accepted by CHAH,[7] nor yet by Plants of the World Online.[8]
It is found in the IBRA regions of Jarrah Forest and the Swan Coastal Plain.[1]
