Abstract
Leucopogon extremus Hislop & Puente-Lelievre, a new species of Leucopogon s. str. with a remarkably anomalous morphology, is described, illustrated and its distribution mapped. Its placement within the genus is confirmed through phylogenetic analyses of the plastid rbcL, matK, atpB–rbcL and trnH–psbA sequences.
