Description

Commersonia rugosa is an open, straggly shrub that typically grows to Шаблон:Cvt high and wide, its new growth covered with brownish, star-shaped hairs. The leaves are linear to narrowly egg-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long with stipules Шаблон:Cvt long at the base. The edges of the leaves are irregularly toothed or lobed and rolled under, the upper surface wrinkled with prominent impressed veins, and the lower surface densely covered with velvety hairs. The flowers are arranged in crowded clusters of 3 to 15 on a peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, each flower on a pedicel up to Шаблон:Cvt long with a narrow bract Шаблон:Cvt long at the base. The flowers are about Шаблон:Cvt wide with five white, petal-like sepals that have fine, white star-shaped hairs on the back, and petals with a narrow, hairy ligule. Flowering occurs from August to November and the fruit is a hairy, bristly capsule Шаблон:Cvt in diameter.[1][2][3]

Taxonomy

This species was first formally described in 1846 by Joachim Steetz who gave it the name Rulingia rugosa in Lehmann's Plantae Preissianae.[4][5] In 1882, Ferdinand von Mueller transferred the species to Commersonia as C. rugosa in his Systematic Census of Australian Plants.[6]

The specific epithet (rugosa) means "wrinkled".[7]

Distribution and habitat

Commersonia rugosa mainly grows near creeks in forest or woodland, sometimes on hillsides or the summit of ranges and occurs south of the Royal National Park in New South Wales, to Orbost in Victoria, where it was first recorded in 2020 following bushfires.[1][2][3]
