Goodenia pritzelii Domin is reinstated as a poorly known species from the north Kimberley region of Western Australia. Known only from four collections including the type, G. pritzelii is clearly allied to G. arachnoidea Carolin with which it is known to be sympatric at one location. A new species, Goodenia oenpelliensis R.L.Barrett related to G. kakadu Carolin is described, known only from the type collection from Oenpelli in the Northern Territory.

Torres Strait Islander peoples, who have for thousands of generations exchanged knowledge for the benefit of all.
