Abstract

Hibbertia fumana Sieber ex Toelken (Dilleniaceae), a species thought to be extinct, was rediscovered during routine botanical surveys in western Sydney. A revised description, including for the first time that of fruit and seed, is provided along with ecological notes, an illustration, and a photograph.
