Mount Louisa.
This entity is common on hills around Townsville. It is different to the type that occurs on loose sand along the coast.
This one on the hills is more shrubby, has larger rounder leaves and a different flowering time.
AVH has several varieties of C. floribundum, but it is not clear which varieties these two types belong to, as practically all the records around Townsville are not given a varietal name.
The situation with varieties in POWO is befuddling. There seems to be var floribundum, but no other currently accepted varieties... which doesn't make sense!
Great to see a huge nest tree for the first time!

I cannot for the life of me tell these species apart without call, and even then do I really know them? No, but I know what a Yellow-spotted Honeyeater sounds like at least
Bristly tropicals! Four of them growing on sticks.
