Daviesia campephylla
Daviesia campephylla is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to a restricted part of Western Australia. It is a low, spreading shrub with ascending branches, phyllodes shaped like looping caterpillars, and yellow flowers with faint red markings. Description
Daviesia campephylla is a spreading, often domed shrub that typically grows to  high and  wide with rough-textured branchlets and phyllodes. Its leaves are reduced to irregularly bent phyllodes often resembling looping caterpillars or s-shaped, mostly  long and  wide. The flowers are arranged in groups of up to five in leaf axils on a peduncle up to  long, each flower on a pedicel  long with egg-shaped or oblong bracts about  long at the base. The sepals are  long and joined at the base, the upper lobes joined for most of their length and the lower three triangular and about  long. The flowers are mainly yellow with faint red markings, the standard broadly egg-shaped,  long and  wide. The wings are spatula-shaped and  long and the keel  long. Flowering occurs in November and the fruit is a thin-walled pod  long. Taxonomy and naming
