Isopogon tridens, commonly known as the three-toothed coneflower,[1] is a species of flowering plant in the family Proteaceae and is endemic to the southwest of Western Australia. It is a shrub with wedge-shaped leaves with two or three sharply-pointed teeth, and flattened-spherical heads of glabrous creamy white, sometimes purple flowers.

Description

Isopogon tridens is a shrub that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt and has hairy, pale reddish to greyish-brown branchlets. The leaves are wedge-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long, with two or three sharply-pointed lobes or teeth near the tip. The flowers are arranged on the ends of branchlets in sessile, flattened-spherical heads Шаблон:Cvt in diameter with hairy, broadly egg-shaped involucral bracts at the base. The flowers are more or less glabrous, creamy white or rarely deep purple, and Шаблон:Cvt long. Flowering occurs from June to July and the fruit is a hairy nut, fused with others in a flattened-spherical head about Шаблон:Cvt in diameter.[1][2]

Taxonomy

Three-toothed coneflower was first formally described in 1855 by Carl Meissner who gave it the name Isopogon trilobus var. tridens in Hooker's Journal of Botany and Kew Garden Miscellany from specimens collected by James Drummond.[3][4] In 1868, Ferdinand von Mueller changed the name to Isopogon tridens in 'Fragmenta phytographiae Australiae.[5][6]

Distribution and habitat

Isopogon tridens usually grows shrubland or heath and in a small area from near the Arrowsmith River to Eneabba in the Geraldton Sandplains biogeographic region in the south-west of Western Australia.[1][2]

Conservation status

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