Cheyniana microphylla |
Cheyniana microphylla (common name bush pomegranate) is a plant in the family Myrtaceae which is endemic to Western Australia. [3]
It was first described in 1928 by Charles Gardner as Balaustion microphyllum, [4] [5] but was redescribed in 2009 by Barbara Rye as Cheyniana microphylla, when she narrowed the circumscription of Balaustion and described the new genus, Cheyniana. [2] [1]
It is considered to be "not threatened". [3]
