Mallees finally published
















Eucalyptus sweedmaniana and Eucalyptus brandiana (previously Euc. gradybrandiana) were published in Australian Systematic Botany by Stephen Hopper and Nathan McQuoid on the 10th June 2009. I was commissioned by Wildlife Encounters back in 2006 to do two illustrated plates of the new species for the proud WA botanists who came across these knee high Eucalypts, Luke Sweedman (Curator for the WA Seed Technology Centre at Kings Park, Perth) and Grady Brand (Kings Park, Perth). Congratulations Luke and Grady, great to see it's all finally public!!

See paper: Two new rare species and a new hybrid in Eucalyptus series Tetrapterae (Myrtaceae) from southern coastal Western Australia
