Banksia fasciculata is a species of column-shaped shrub that is endemic to Western Australia. It has hairy stems, crowded, prickly leaves, yellow flowers and hairy fruit.

Description

Banksia fasciculata is a column-shaped shrub that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt but does not form a lignotuber. It has hairy stems and serrated leaves that are linear in outline, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long, with between five and fifteen sharply-pointed teeth on each side. The flowers are borne on a head containing between forty and sixty flowers in each head. There are many narrow involucral bracts Шаблон:Cvt long, covered with silky, rusty brown hairs at the base of the head. The flowers have a creamy yellow perianth Шаблон:Cvt long and a yellow pistil Шаблон:Cvt long. Flowering occurs from late May to August and the follicles are egg-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long and hairy.[1][2][3]

Taxonomy and naming

This banksia was first formally described in 1996 by Alex George in the journal Nuytsia from specimens he collected near Harrismith, and given the name Dryandra fasciculata.[4] In 2007, Austin Mast and Kevin Thiele transferred all the dryandras to the genus Banksia and this species became Banksia fasciculata.[5][6] The specific epithet (fasciculata) is a Latin word meaning "clustered" or "in bundles" referring to the crowded leaves and flowering heads.[3]

Distribution and habitat

Banksia fasciculata grows in mallee-kwongan between Corrigin and Kukerin in the Avon Wheatbelt and Mallee biogeographic regions.[1][2]

Conservation status

This banksia is classified as "Priority Three" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Parks and Wildlife[2] meaning that it is poorly known and known from only a few locations but is not under imminent threat.[7]
