Description

Banksia hewardiana is an openly branched shrub that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt but does not form a lignotuber. The leaves are serrated, linear in outline, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole up to Шаблон:Cvt long. There are between five and fifteen sharply pointed teeth on each side of the leaves. Groups of between thirty-five and sixty sweetly-scented flowers are borne in a head on a side branch about Шаблон:Cvt long. There are hairy, lance-shaped involucral bracts up to Шаблон:Cvt long at the base of the head. The flowers have a lemon-yellow perianth Шаблон:Cvt long and a cream-coloured pistil Шаблон:Cvt long and glabrous. Flowering occurs from July to November and the follicles are oblong to egg-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long and sparsely hairy.[1][2]

Taxonomy and naming

This species was first formally described in 1856 by Carl Meissner who gave it the name Dryandra hewardiana and published the description in de Candolle's Prodromus Systematis Naturalis Regni Vegetabilis from specimens collected by James Drummond.[3][4] The specific epithet (hewardiana) honours the English botanist Robert Heward (1791–1877).[5] In 2007 Austin Mast and Kevin Thiele transferred all dryandras to the genus Banksia and renamed this species Banksia hewardiana.[6][7]

Distribution and habitat

Banksia hewardiana grows in woodland and heath between Cataby, New Norcia and Moora.[1][2]

Conservation status

This banksia is classified as "not threatened" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Parks and Wildlife.[1]
