Diagnosis

Pultenaea praecipua is distinct from other members of the P. glabra complex in having the adaxial leaf surface densely covered in tall papillae, such that the dorsal leaf surface appears glaucous to almost white; the abaxial leaf surface bears triangular mamillae; the leaf apex has a distinct apiculus, and the flowers are produced in inflorescences the internodes of which are not contracted in relation to those of vegetative branches; each flower is subtended by a normal sized, or nearly normal sized, leaf.

Etymology

From the Latin praecipua , distinguished, in reference to the striking appearance of flowering individuals of this taxon.
