Styphelia foliosa

Styphelia foliosa, commonly known as candle cranberry, is a species of flowering plant in the family Ericaceae and is endemic to the Perth region of Western Australia.
The species was first formally described in 1845 by German botanist Otto Wilhelm Sonder, who gave it the name Astroloma foliosum in Johann [Georg Christian Lehmann|Lehmann's] Plantae Preissianae, based on plant material collected by James [Drummond (botanist)|James Drummond] at Maddington, [Western Australia|Maddington]. In 2020, Michael Hislop, Darren Crayn and Caroline Puente-Lelievre transferred the species to Styphelia as S. foliosa in Australian Systematic Botany.
Styphelia foliosa occurs near Perth in the Jarrah Forest and Swan Coastal Plain bioregions of south-western Western Australia.
