Leucopogon crassiflorus is a species of flowering plant in the heath family Ericaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is an erect shrub with few branches and that typically grows to a height of 30–60 cm (12–24 in). Its leaves are broadly egg-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, to more or less round, 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) long with a stem-clasping base. The flowers are borne singly or in pairs in upper leaf axils on a short peduncle, sometimes in small clusters, and with small bracts and bracteoles at the base. The sepals are about 4 mm (0.16 in) long and the petals about 6.5 mm (0.26 in) long, the petal lobes longer than the petal tube.[2]
The species was first formally described in 1868 by Ferdinand von Mueller who gave it the name Styphelia crassiflorus in Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae.[3] In 1868, George Bentham changed the name to Leucopogon crassiflorus in Flora Australiensis.[4] The specific epithet (crassiflorus) means "thick-flowered".[5]
Leucopogon crassiflorus occurs in the Avon Wheatbelt and Geraldton Sandplains bioregions of south-western Western Australia and is listed (as Styphelia crassiflora) as "not threatened" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions.[6]
