Flora of Denmark WA - Agonis
Agonis from the Greek agon, a gathering or collection. Probably refers to the small tight flower heads.
The following table lists the Agonis species which are shown by Florabase to have been collected in Denmark Shire. The second column shows whether the species was included in the book Flora of the South West and under what name if different. Most of the Agonis species which were included in the book have since been transferred to the Taxandria genus.
