About

Pseudanthus ligulatus is a species of flowering plant in the family Picrodendraceae and is endemic to northern Queensland in Australia. It is a monoecious shrub with simple, lance-shaped or linear to narrowly oblong leaves and creamy white male and pale green female flowers arranged singly in upper leaf axils, but appearing clustered on the ends of branches.

Where it grows

Pseudanthus ligulatus grows in heath, woodland or forest, rarely in rainforest. Subspecies ligulatus occurs from the Mareeba district, south to Charters Towers and east to the Cumberland Islands in northern Queensland. Subspecies volcanicus is restricted to the Glasshouse Mountains in south-east Queensland, where it grows in rock crevices and on cliff faces.
