Abstract
All 32 species of the genus Pultenaea Sm. occurring in the eastern states of Australia with velutinous ovaries and incurved leaves are revised and seven names are reduced into synonymy for the first time. Two new species are described, Pultenaea penna de Kok and Pultenaea rodwayii Tindale ex de Kok, and one former variety of P. muelleri is raised to species level (P. reflexifolia). Eleven species (P. acerosa, P. costata, P. divaricata, P.�laxiflora, P. muelleri, P. prolifera, P. prostrata, P. subalpina, P. trifida, P. trinervis and P. vestita) are lectotypified and a key to the group is provided. The legitimacy of treatment of the presented species as a separate group and the species concept used is briefly discussed.Keywords
