Editorial Note

The systematics of the former family Epacridaceae (now sunk into Ericaceae) have been significantly reordered on the basis of molecular and other phylogenetic evidence. As a consequence, all the species treated by Bean under the genus Leucopogon (like those in Cyathodes, its traditional associate) have been referred to other genera, in this case Acrothamnus and Styphelia.

Leucopogon as now circumscribed does not include any species at present cultivated in our area.
