Grevillea synapheae (Catkin Grevillea) is a shrub in the family Proteaceae. It is endemic to the southwest of Western Australia, occurring in low heathland.[2]
It is a prostrate to erect shrub which usually grows to between 0.2 and 1.5 metres in height and has a peak flowering period between July and October (mid-winter to mid-spring) in its native range.[2] The cream or white flowers are produced in axillary or terminal racemes.[3]
The species was first formally described by botanist Robert Brown in 1830 in Supplementum primum prodromi florae.[1][3] It is closely related to Grevillea trifida, Grevillea muelleri and Grevillea prominens.[3]
Several subspecies have been identified as follows:[1]
- G. synapheae subsp. Mt Misery (S.D.Hopper 6333), also known as "Mt Misery form"
- G. synapheae subsp. latiloba (Meisn.) Makinson, also known as the "Mogumber" or "broad-leaved" form
- G. synapheae subsp. minyulo Makinson, also known as "Minyollo form" or "Minyollo variant"
- G. synapheae R.Br. subsp. synapheae
