Amyema maidenii is a species of flowering plant within the genus Amyema, an epiphytic hemiparasitic plant of the family Loranthaceae native to Australia and found Australia-wide in the inland (but not in Victoria nor Tasmania).[3][4]

Description

Its inflorescence is composed of two opposite triads, with all the flowers being sessile.[3] The leaves are flat.[3]

Ecology

A. maidenii is found on Acacias.[3][5]

Taxonomy

The earliest record in an Australian herbarium is MEL 22373491,[4] which was collected in 1860 by Hermann Beckler on the Scropes Range (about 57 km north of Menindee) during the Victorian Exploring expedition.[6] It was first described by Blakely in 1922 as Loranthus maidenii,[1][7] but in 1962 was placed in the genus Amyema by Barlow.[2]
