Description

Daviesia newbeyi is a bushy, broom-like shrub that typically grows to a height of up to Шаблон:Cvt and has many ridged stems at its base. Its phyllodes are somewhat crowded, narrowly oblong to linear, Шаблон:Cvt long, Шаблон:Cvt wide and rigid. The flowers are arranged singly in leaf axils on a peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the pedicel Шаблон:Cvt long with narrowly oblong bracts Шаблон:Cvt long at the base. The sepals are Шаблон:Cvt long and joined at the base, the two upper lobes joined for most of their length and the lower three broadly triangular and about Шаблон:Cvt long. The standard petal is egg-shaped, about Шаблон:Cvt long and wide, and orange with dark red markings around a central yellow spot. The wings are about Шаблон:Cvt long and dark red, and the keel is about Шаблон:Cvt long and dark red. Flowering mostly occurs from August to early October and the fruit is a flattened triangular pod Шаблон:Cvt long.[1][2]

Taxonomy and naming

Daviesia newbeyi was first formally described in 1991 by Michael Crisp in Australian Systematic Botany from specimens collected by Kenneth Newbey near Ravensthorpe in 1978.[3] The specific epithet (newbeyi) honours the collector of the type specimens.[4]

Distribution and habitat

This daviesia grows in heath and is known from a few disjunct populations, near Ravensthorpe, Lake Grace, Coolgardie and Esperance, in the Esperance Plains and Mallee biogeographic region of inland Western Australia.[1][2]

Conservation status

Daviesia newbeyi is listed as "Priority Three" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions,[2] meaning that it is poorly known and known from only a few locations but is not under imminent threat.[5]
