Editorial Note

Bean treated species in Shawia under Olearia. We have published this stub genus article in the course of a wider reorganisation of Asteraceae articles, part a programme of work beginning in early 2025 to bring the nomenclature of articles in line with modern treatments. Historic Bean text will appear under its correct modern name, with appropriate synonymy, until we have funding to update the articles entirely.
