Shepherd, K.A. & Wilkins, C.F. Typification of Lasiopetalum and an interim key to the Western Australian species of the genus (Malvaceae: Byttnerioideae). Nuytsia 29: 181–192 (2018). Lasiopetalum ferrugineum Sm. is lectotypified and selected as the type for Lasiopetalum Sm. Notes on the variation within L. rosmarinifolium (Turcz.) Benth. are provided, with L. rosmarinifolium var. latifolium (Turcz.) Benth. and L. sp. Kukerin (C.A. Gardner 13646) treated as synonyms. A preliminary key to the species of Western Australian Lasiopetalum is also presented.
