Wilson, Peter G. & Rowe, R. (18 September 2015), Additional taxa of Indigofera (Fabaceae: Indigofereae) from the Eremaean Botanical Province, Western Australia. Nuytsia 25: 276-279, Figs 11, 12 (map) [tax. nov.]
  • Type: "3.3 km south of Mount Narryer Homestead, Western Australia, 20 September 1991, Peter G. Wilson 1186 & R. Rowe (holo: NSW 249974; iso: K, PERTH)."
taxonomic synonym: Indigofera sp. Occidentalis (D.J.Edinger 1259) WA Herbarium [n/a]
  • Etymology: "The epithet is derived from the Latin occidentalis, pertaining to the west. We have chosen this name since the species is restricted to Western Australia and also because there is a specimen of it at PERTH (Oldfield s.n.) annotated ‘I. brevidens var. occidentalis Meissn.’. As far as we can ascertain, this varietal name was never published by Meisner."
