Sannantha
''Sannantha'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Myrtaceae that are native to Australia and New Caledonia. Plants in the genus ''Sannantha'' are shrubs or trees with leaves arranged in opposite pairs, flowers usually arranged in small groups, the Peduncle (botany), peduncles often 1.5–2 times as long as the Pedicel (botany), pedicels and with seven to fourteen stamens. The fruit is a thin-walled Capsule (fruit), capsule containing flattened, D-shaped seeds. Some species of ''Sannantha'' were previously included in the genus ''Babingtonia''. The genus ''Sannantha'' was first formally described in 2007 by Peter Gordon Wilson in ''Australian Systematic Botany'' and the first species he described (the Type (biology), type species) was ''Sannantha virgata''.

Sannantha Virgata
''Sannantha virgata'' is a flowering shrub species in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae. It is endemic to New Caledonia. The plant grows to between 0.5 and 3 metres high. White flowers appear in spring or summer with 5 rounded petals surrounding 7 to 10 stamens. The fruits are 1–2 mm wide and 2–3 mm in length. Taxonomy The species was first formally described in 1775 as ''Leptospermum virgatum''. In 1810 it was placed in the genus ''Baeckea''. By 1997 an Australian ''Baeckea virgata'' species complex had been identified which was regarded as separate from the New Caledonian population. From this complex, 8 separate species were identified and placed in the genus ''Babingtonia''. In 2007, the species were placed in the newly created genus ''Sannantha'' and assigned the following names: *''Sannantha angusta'' (A.R.Bean) Peter G.Wilson *''Sannantha bidwillii'' (A.R.Bean) Peter G.Wilson *''Sannantha brachypoda'' (A.R.Bean) Peter G.Wilson *'' Sannantha collina'' (A.R.Bean) ...
