Leptecophylla Mariannensis
''Leptecophylla mariannensis'' is a plant in the Ericaceae family (heath or heathers) and is only known to exist on the tiny island of Alamagan in the Mariana archipelago. The species was first collected in 1933 by Japanese botanist, Ryōzō Kanehira, who described it in 1934 as ''Cyathodes mariannensis'' in The Botanical Magazine (Tokyo) (植物學雜誌, ''Shokubutsugaku zasshi''). An isotype fragment, also collected in 1933, was named ''Styphelia mariannensis'', and reportedly found in mossy thickets and open places up to 700 meters elevation. Another specimen was collected from Alamagan in 1934 by Japanese botanist, Takahide Hosokawa. The latest known observation of the plant was by P.J.R Hill in 1955. It was not recorded during the 2017 botanical survey of Alamagan by the CNMI Division of Fish & WIldlife. In 1999, C.M. Weiller proposed that 12 species previously classified under the ''Cyathodes'' genus, including ''Cyathodes mariannensis,'' be reclassified to the new ...

Leptecophylla Parvifolia
''Leptecophylla parvifolia'', commonly known as the mountain pinkberry, is a small to medium sized species of shrub in the family Ericaceae that is endemic to the highlands of Tasmania.  This species was first collected and documented in 1804 by Robert Brown and was formerly included in the Cythodes genus. It was then as noted as subspecies of Leptecophylla junipernia but in 2018, was classified as its own species Habit It grows as an erect, compact, and rounded shrub, typically wider than it is high. This species typically ranges in height from 50-150cm, rarely exceeding 2m. ''L. parvifolia'' is common in open eucalypt woodlands and within rainforest communities. It occurs throughout the southern, central and northeast highlands of Tasmania at altitudes above 500 metres and can form the dominant shrub layer in some locations (e.g. the Central Plateau). In the southeast, its primarily found on rocky dolerite slopes but also can occur on Carboniferous-Devonian rock types D ...

Ericaceae
The Ericaceae are a family of flowering plants, commonly known as the heath or heather family, found most commonly in acidic and infertile growing conditions. The family is large, with c.4250 known species spread across 124 genera, making it the 14th most species-rich family of flowering plants. The many well known and economically important members of the Ericaceae include the cranberry, blueberry, huckleberry, rhododendron (including azaleas), and various common heaths and heathers (''Erica'', ''Cassiope'', ''Daboecia'', and ''Calluna'' for example). Description The Ericaceae contain a morphologically diverse range of taxa, including herbs, dwarf shrubs, shrubs, and trees. Their leaves are usually evergreen, alternate or whorled, simple and without stipules. Their flowers are hermaphrodite and show considerable variability. The petals are often fused (sympetalous) with shapes ranging from narrowly tubular to funnelform or widely urn-shaped. The corollas are usually ra ...
