Carmichaelia astonii (common name Aston's dwarf broom)[4] is a species of pea in the family Fabaceae. It is found only in South Island of New Zealand.[2] Its conservation status (2018) is "Nationally vulnerable" under the New Zealand Threat Classification System.[1] The flowers appear pea-like, are pink, with a darker centre.[5]
Taxonomy and naming
The species was first described by George Simpson in 1945, who gave it the specific epithet, astonii, to honour Bernard Aston.[3] A lectotype, AK 70629 collected by Simpson in February 1937 on the Ure River, in the Marlborough Region, is held in the Auckland Museum.[6]
