Description
Hibbertia mucronata is an shrub that typically grows to a height of up to Шаблон:Cvt and has woolly-hairy branchlets. The leaves are crowded, spirally arranged, thick, linear tapering to a sharp point, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The flowers are arranged singly in leaf axils and more or less sessile or on a hairy peduncle up to Шаблон:Cvt long, sometimes with sharply-pointed bracts at the base. The five sepals are joined at the base, the outer sepals Шаблон:Cvt long, the inner ones Шаблон:Cvt long. The five petals are golden yellow, egg-shaped with the narrower end towards the base and Шаблон:Cvt long with a notch at the tip. There are five stamens, fused at the base on one side of the two densely hairy carpels that each contain two ovules. Flowering mostly occurs between August and December.[1][2]
Taxonomy
Hibbertia mucronata was first formally described in 1852 by Nikolai Turczaninow who gave it the name Pleurandra mucronata in Bulletin de la Société Impériale des Naturalistes de Moscou.[3][4] In 1863 George Bentham changed the name to Hibbertia mucronata in Flora Australiensis.[5][6] The specific epithet (mucronata) means "mucronate", referring to the leaves.[7]
