Description

Recent molecular work has indicated that the genus Wisteria in Australia presently consists of three species having names only in Callerya (C. australis, C. megasperma and C. pilipes). However, there is at least one new species known from one plant in the Daintree catchment. Callerya australis occurs in three disjunct areas and possibly includes three species. The project will revise all described species as well as describe new species.
