Acacia pharangites
Acacia pharangites, commonly known as Wongan gully wattle, is a shrub of the genus Acacia and the subgenus Plurinerves that is endemic to the Wongan Hills of south western Australia and is listed as endangered according to the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999.
It is native to a small area in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia where it is commonly situated in gullies growing in clay soils over and around areas of greenstone. It has a limited distribution in the Wongan Hills where it is usually a part of mixed scrubland communities. It is known from only two populations consisting of 49 mature plants in total found in the Shire of Wongan-Ballidu in an area of remnant natural vegetation where an estimated ninety five percent of native vegetation has been cleared for agricultural purposes within the Shire as a whole. One population is located on private property and holds forty seven percent of mature plants the other population is found in a nature reserve and contains the remainder of the mature plants.
