Calytrix leptophylla

Calytrix leptophylla is a glabrous shrub that typically grows to a height of up to 2 m (6 ft 7 in). Its leaves are linear, 2–6 mm (0.079–0.236 in) long, 0.25–0.30 mm (0.0098–0.0118 in) wide on a petiole 0.25–0.50 mm (0.0098–0.0197 in) long. There are stipules up to 0.25 mm (0.0098 in) long at the base of the petiole. The flowers are borne on a peduncle 3.5–7.5 mm (0.14–0.30 in) long with egg-shaped, elliptic or oblong lobes 2.0–4.5 mm (0.079–0.177 in) long. The floral tube is mostly free from the style, 7–11 mm (0.28–0.43 in) long and usually has 5 ribs. The sepals are fused at the base, with more or less egg-shaped to round lobes 1.5–2.0 mm (0.059–0.079 in) long and about 1.5 mm (0.059 in) long, with an awn long up to 11 mm (0.43 in) long. The petals are pink to light purple with a white base, elliptic to narrowly elliptic, 5–9.5 mm (0.20–0.37 in) long and about 1.75–2.75 mm (0.069–0.108 in) wide, and there are about 35 to 40 white to yellow stamens in two rows. Flowering occurs from March to November.

This species of Calytrix grows in callitris country on stony ridges, near a creek, in heathy scrub on sandstone slopes and on granite outcrops from the Coen district to near Hughenden in north Queensland.
