Flora of Denmark WA - Leptocarpus

Leptocarpus from the Greek lepto, thin and carpus, fruited.

The following table lists the Leptocarpus species which are shown by Florabase to have been collected in Denmark Shire. The second column shows whether the species was included in the book Flora of the South West and under what name if different. There were many changes to the genus, transfers mainly from Meeboldina, as a result of an article in Telopea Vol 16 19–41 (2014).
