    THREATENED SPECIES SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE Established under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 The Minister’s delegate approved this Conservation Advice on 01/04/2016. Conservation Advice Grevillea celata Colquhoun grevillea Conservation Status Grevillea celata (Colquhoun grevillea) is listed as Vulnerable under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwlth) (EPBC Act). The species is eligible for listing as prior to the commencement of the EPBC Act, it was listed as Vulnerable under Schedule 1 of the Endangered Species Protection Act 1992 (Cwlth). The main factors that are the cause of the species being eligible for listing in the Vulnerable category are its geographic distribution is precarious for its survival due to its limited extent of occurrence, small population and low number of locations. Grevillea celata is protected (but not listed) under the Victorian Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988, and listed as vulnerable on the Advisory List of Rare or Threatened Plants in Victoria. Description The Colquhoun grevillea is an erect and open, to low and dense, root-suckering shrub growing to 1.8 m tall. The leaves are elliptic, alternate, to 44 mm x 18 mm, hairy, grey-green above, the lower surface almost white and densely hairy. The leaf margins are curved under, sometimes almost obscuring the lower surface. Flowers appear from July to February and are red and yellow with curved tubes about 12 mm long. Fruit is a leathery, hairy capsule with longitudinal ridges, which splits to release winged seeds (Molyneux 1995; Walsh & Entwisle 1996). The Colquhoun grevillea is very similar to Grevillea chrysophaea, which does not root-sucker and lacks red coloration on the perianth (Walsh & Entwisle 1996).
