}}Homoranthus tropicus is a plant in the myrtle family Myrtaceae and is endemic to tropical north Queensland. It is a shrub with curved, club-shaped leaves and white flowers in a corymbose-like arrangement on the ends of branchlets.[2][3]

Description

Flowers and fruits sporadically throughout the year, primarily February to July.[4]

Taxonomy and naming

Homoranthus tropicus was first formally described in 1981 by Norman Byrnes from a specimen he collected north of Laura in 1975 and the description was published in Austrobaileya.[5] The specific epithet (tropicus) is a Latin word meaning "a turning" or "solstice".[6]

Distribution and habitat

Grows in northern Queensland in heath or shrubby woodland on shallow rocky soils over sandstone.[4]

Conservation status

Restricted distribution and considered rare by Briggs and Leigh (1996) given a ROTAP conservation code of 2R.[4]
