Nuytsia - WA's Journal of Systematic Botany

Nuytsia is a refereed journal that publishes original papers on systematic botany with preference given to papers relating to the flora of Western Australia. Its scope includes revisionary studies and systematic analyses of native plant groups, papers publishing new species or drawing attention to potential new invasive species, and short communications of taxonomic and nomenclatural clarifications.

Nearly one-fifth of all published plant names for WA have been formally described in our journal since its appearance in 1970, including over one-quarter of the conservation taxa in the State. Refer to the cumulative index to scientific names published in Nuytsia for details.
