“…and Latrobea Meisn., and the inflated globose or ellipsoid fruit, a feature shared with Sphaerolobium Sm. In addition, Chappill et al (2008) indicated that seeds of all observed Gompholobium species have much longer (> 2 mm) funicles than those of other observed legume genera, a feature also noted by Cameron (1988) in a study of the embryology of Australian legume genera. Chappill et al (2008) also described a new species, G. karijini Chappill, to separate material from the Hamersley Range from the somewhat similar G. polyzygum F.Muell., which occurs to the east and south of the Pilbara bioregion.…”

Chappill noted that the new species was variable; the type specimen is almost glabrous, while the remainder of the collections included by Chappill in G. karijini are villous.…”

“…Gompholobium Sm. is an Australasian genus of 44 species in tribe Mirbelieae of the Fabaceae (Chappill et al 2008). It is found in all Australian States and mainland Territories and extends outside Australia to Wetar Island in the Lesser Sunda Islands, and New Guinea.…”

“…Gompholobium was first described by Smith (1798) who gave the distinguishing features of the genus as a ventricose fruit with numerous seeds, ternate or imparipinnate leaves and large, yellow flowers. Recently, in a revision of Gompholobium, Chappill et al (2008) gave modified distinguishing features, including the separation of the calyx lobes nearly to the hypanthium, a feature shared in the tribe with Jacksonia R.Br. ex Sm., Leptosema Benth.…”

Wilkins, C.F. & Trudgen, M.E. A new species of Gompholobium (Fabaceae: Mirbelieae) from the Pilbara bioregion of Western Australia. Nuytsia 22(1): 31-40 (2012). Gompholobium oreophilum C.F.Wilkins & Trudgen, a new species from the Pilbara bioregion of Western Australia, is described and compared to its close relatives G. karijini Chappill and G. polyzygum F.Muell. The different habitat preferences and the possible hybridisation between G. oreophilum and G. karijini, which is also endemic to the Pilbara, are discussed. A key and distribution maps are provided. This paper describes the villous entity as a new species, G. oreophilum C.F.Wilkins & Trudgen, and compares it to its closest relatives, G. polyzygum and G. karijini. MethodsThis study is based on examination of fresh material, and herbarium specimens housed at PERTH. Habitat and lithology information was derived from Griffin and Trudgen (2009) supplemented by a small amount of targeted field work. Taxonomic treatmentSpecies in the G. polyzygum complex have imparipinnate leaves with 4-21 leaflet pairs, leaflets with flat margins and flowers with yellow to yellow-orange petals.Key to species of the Gompholobium polyzygum complex 1. Plants glabrous or very sparsely hairy, with calyces glabrous except for lobe margins ..............G. karijini 1: Plants ± densely hairy, especially on branchlets and calyces 2. Leaves mostly with > 10 pairs of overlapping leaflets; leaflets mostly < 4 mm long.Hairs on peduncles, pedicels and buds > 1 mm long

Australia has a very diverse pea-flowered legume flora with 1715 native and naturalised species currently recognised. Tribe Mirbelieae s.l. includes 44% of Australia’s peas in 24 genera with 756 recognised species. However, several genera within the Pultenaea alliance in tribe Mirbelieae are considered to be non-monophyletic and two main options have been proposed: option one is to merge ca. 18 genera containing ca. 540 species (the largest genus, Pultenaea has nomenclatural priority); and option two is to re-circumscribe some genera and describe new genera as required to form monophyletic groups. At the species level, option one would require 76% of names to be changed; whereas based on available data, option two is likely to require, at most, 8.3% of names to change. Option two therefore provides the least nomenclatural disruption but cannot be implemented without a robust phylogenetic framework to define new generic limits. Here we present novel analyses of available plastid DNA data (trnL-F) which suggest that option two would be feasible once sufficient data are generated to resolve relationships. However, the reticulate evolutionary histories or past rapid speciation suggested for this group may prevent the resolution of all nodes. We propose targeted use of Next-Generation Sequencing technology as the best way to resolve relationships between the key clades in the tribe and present a framework for such a study. An overview of current taxonomy in the tribe is presented, along with the state of taxonomic knowledge and availability of published descriptions for electronic flora treatments. Several new combinations and typifications are published in an appendix.

A novel member of the Tombusviridae from a wild legume, Gompholobium preissii

et al. 2016

As part of an investigation into viruses of wild plants in Australia, a contiguous sequence of 3935 nucleotides was obtained after shotgun sequencing of RNA isolated from an asymptomatic wild legume, Gompholobium preissii. Phylogenetic analysis of the sequence revealed that it most closely resembled that of Trailing lespedeza virus 1 (TLV1), a virus isolated from a wild legume in America. The proposed virus, named Gompholobium virus A, and TLV1 are genetically closest to viruses in the genera Alphacarmovirus and Pelarspovirus, family Tombusviridae, but they share features distinguishing them from both groups.
