Maireana cheelii, common name - chariot wheels, is a species of flowering plant in the family Amaranthaceae,[3] native to Victoria, New South Wales,[1] and Queensland (where it is extinct).[4] It is found on seasonally wet, heavy loams and clay soils.[5]
It was first described in 1934 by Robert Henry Anderson as Kochia cheelii,[2][6] but in 1975 Paul Wilson reassigned it to the genus, Maireana.[3][7]
It is a "vulnerable" species under the EPBC Act.[1][8] Threats to its current populations include: weed invasion, grazing by stock, roadworks, and recreational vehicle use[9]
