Bentham refers under JZ Leucadendron to Banksian specimens (which he 
erroneously attributes to Brown) from Endeavour’s River, “remarkable for their dark 
coloured stamens.” The plant, of which there is a drawing, does not seem to differ 
materially from J. viridiflora, of which Solander considered it “‘admodum affinis et forte 
yarietas,” except in the colour of the flowers, which is described in the MSS. as “intense 
sanguineus.”
