    A.S.Nuytsia George 20: 57–77 & N. Gibson,(2010) A revision of Calothamnus quadrifidus (Myrtaceae) 57 A revision of Calothamnus quadrifidus (Myrtaceae) A.S. George1,3 and N. Gibson2 1‘Four Gables’, 18 Barclay Road, Kardinya, Western Australia 6163 2 Science Division, Department of Environment and Conservation, Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre,Western Australia 6983 3 Email: [email protected] Abstract George, A.S. & Gibson, N. A revision of Calothamnus quadrifidus (Myrtaceae). Nuytsia 20: 57–77 (2010). The highly variable species Calothamnus quadrifidus R.Br. is discussed and an infraspecific classification with eight subspecies is proposed. The following new taxa are described: Calothamnus quadrifidus subsp. petraeus A.S.George & N.Gibson, C. quadrifidus subsp. seminudus A.S.George & N.Gibson and C. quadrifidus subsp. teretifolius A.S.George & N.Gibson. New combinations are C. quadrifidus subsp. angustifolius (Ewart) A.S.George & N.Gibson, C. quadrifidus subsp. asper (Turcz.) A.S.George & N.Gibson and C. quadrifidus subsp. homalophyllus (F.Muell.) A.S.George & N.Gibson, and a new status is given for C. quadrifidus subsp. obtusus (Benth.) A.S.George & N.Gibson. Introduction Calothamnus quadrifidus was described by Robert Brown in 1812 from specimens that he collected in January 1802 at Lucky Bay, east of where Esperance now stands, in Western Australia. It has since proved to be one of the most widespread and variable taxa in the south-western flora, extending west to Cape Naturaliste, north to Shark Bay and inland to ­­­­just beyond Southern Cross. A number of names have been applied to some variants at either specific or infraspecific rank.

Some common plants on the island are listed below. Woody Island has a very diverse flora for an area less than 2km x 2km, with 20 species of daises, 12 species of grass, 11 myrtles, 9 peas and wattles, 7 carnations and sedges, 4 species of trigger plants, 3 species of saltbush and 2 hakeas. Acacia conniana Acacias (wattles) Acacia is a genus of shrubs and trees that are also known as wattles. There are over 1300 species globally, and 960 are native to Australia. There are 5 species of wattle on Woody Island that flower at varying seasons. Raspberry Jam Tree Acacia acuminata The "raspberry jam tree" above gets its name from the strong odour of freshly cut wood, which resembles raspberry jam. The raspberry jam tree occurs as a shrub rather than a tree on Woody Island.
