A revision of Muelleranthus, Ptychosema and Aenictophyton (Fabaceae: Bossiaeeae)

A taxonomic revision of Muelleranthus Hutch., Ptychosema Benth. and Aenictophyton A.T.Lee (Fabaceae: Bossiaeeae) is presented. All are Australian-endemic and species are found predominantly in arid or semiarid regions. A new genus, Paragoodia I.Thomps., is erected to accommodate Paragoodia crenulata (A.T.Lee) I.Thomps., which is transferred from Muelleranthus. Ptychosema anomalum F.Muell. is transferred to Aenictophyton and recombined as Aenictophyton anomalum (F.Muell.) I.Thomps. Two new species, Muelleranthus parvalatus I.Thomps. and M. obovatus I.Thomps, and one new subspecies, Aenictophyton reconditum subsp. macrophyllum I.Thomps., are described. Distribution maps and keys to species are presented. A revised key to genera in tribe Bossiaeeae is also presented.
