Pultenaea fragrans is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to a small area of New South Wales. It is an erect shrub with flattened cladodes, small, scale-like leaves, and pea-like, yellow and red flowers.

Description

Bossiaea fragrans is an erect shrub that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt with flattened, winged cladodes Шаблон:Cvt wide. The leaves are reduced to dark brown scales, Шаблон:Cvt long. The flowers are borne singly or in groups of up to six, each flower on a pedicel Шаблон:Cvt long with overlapping, narrow egg-shaped bracts up to Шаблон:Cvt long at the base. The five sepals are Шаблон:Cvt long and joined at the base forming a tube, the two upper lobes about Шаблон:Cvt wide and the lower three lobes about Шаблон:Cvt wide. There are also bracteoles but that fall off before the flower opens. The standard petal is yellow with a red base and Шаблон:Cvt long, the wings yellow with a red base and about Шаблон:Cvt long and the keel is dark red and Шаблон:Cvt wide. Flowering occurs in September and October and the fruit is an oblong pod Шаблон:Cvt long.[1][2][3]

Bossiaea fragrans was first formally described in 2009 by Keith Leonard McDougall in the journal Telopea from specimens he collected in the Abercrombie Karst Conservation Area.[1][4]

Distribution and habitat

This bossiaea is only known from two populations near Abercrombie Caves on the southern tablelands of New South Wales where it grows in woodland.[2][5]
