A revision of Homalocalyx, F.Muell. (Myrtaceae)

Abstract

The endemic Australian genera Homalocalyx F. Muell. and Wehlia F. Muell. (both Myrtaceae, Chamelaucieae) are found to be congeneric. The enlarged genus Homalocalyx comprises eleven species of which only two already have valid names in Homalocalyx. New combinations are effected for the six accepted, previously described, species of Wehlia, and three species are described as new: H. chapmanii, H. echinulatus and H. inerrabundus.
