Agiortia is a small genus of flowering plants in the family Ericaceae.[1]
They are native to New South Wales and Queensland in Australia.[2]
There are three species as follows:
- Agiortia cicatricata (J.M.Powell) Quinn syn. Leucopogon cicatricatus
- Agiortia pedicellata (C.T.White) Quinn syn. Leucopogon pedicellatus
- Agiortia pleiosperma (F.Muell.) Quinn syn. Leucopogon pleiospermus
The genus is closely related to Leucopogon.[1]
The genus name of Agiortia is in honour of Despina (Fanias) Agioritis (1927–1994), an Australian botanist from Innisfail, Queensland.[3] It was first described and published in Austral. Syst. Bot. Vol.18 on page 450 in 2005.[2]
