A revision of the Calytrix acutifolia complex (Myrtaceae: Chamelaucieae)
NGE, F.J., KEIGHERY, G.J. AND THIELE, K.R.

In this taxonomic review of the Calytrix acutifolia (Lindl.) Craven species complex we recognise four species, one of which (C. retrorsifolia Nge & Keighery) is described as new. Lhotskya hirta Regel is recombined into Calytrix Labill. as C. hirta (Regel)Nge & K.R.Thiele, while L. scabra Turcz. is recombined as C. cravenii Nge & K.R.Thiele. Calytrix acutifolia s. str. is recircumscribed as the fourth member of the complex.
