- Abstract
The rare Licola Dampiera 'Dampiera galbraithiana' was first collected in 1973, by Evan Chesterfield in the catch ment of Victoria's Macalister River, and identified by Jean Galbraith as 'Dampiera scottiana'. After subsequent collections by JH Willis and AC Beauglehole, MTM Rajput and RC Carolin used Willis's specimens to describe a new species in 1988 and named it in honour of Jean Galbraith.
