Ant Hill and Sunday Hill are situated approximately 61 and 55 kilometres respectively to the southeast of Nullagine within the East Pilbara Manganese Province. The total area of investigation covered both the Ant Hill and Sunday Hill mining lease areas (M46/238 and M46/237, respectively). However the development of the project will be a staged process, with a much smaller area of less than 50ha at Ant Hill (M46/238) targeted for extraction of ore in the first two years following project approval.

Two intriguing outlying specimens Australia, between Whyalla and the Gawler Ranges. that most closely match A. t. myall were taken Its distribution is largely unchanged since its by R. C.

Its present status in the Bates in the Yellabinna region, over 400 km to Yellabinna region, where it was recorded once in the west, but they have not been reported from 1909, is unknown. Searches in 2006 were successful that region since (Black 2004). Another outlying at 76% of 62 located sites of previous records.

This account includes 40 taxa, of which about 10 taxa are represented by fossil specimens from packrat middens. This is the twentieth contribution for this flora, published in Phytoneuron and also posted open access on the website of the University of Arizona Herbarium: <http//cals.arizona.edu/herbarium/content/flora-sw-arizona>. Six eudicot families are included in this contribution (Table 1): Solanaceae (9 genera, 21 species), Talinaceae (1 species), Tamaricaceae (1 genus, 2 species), Urticaceae (2 genera, 2 species), Verbenaceae (4 genera, 7 species), and Zygophyllaceae (4 genera, 7 species). The flora area covers 5141 km 2 (1985 mi 2) of contiguous protected areas in the heart of the Sonoran Desert (Figure 1). The first article in this series includes maps and brief descriptions of the physical, biological, ecological, floristic, and deep history of the flora area (Felger et al.
