My contribution:

Leschenaultia orchestris - Dancing Leschenaultia is only known from three populations distributed over of 3 km, north of Cascade, a small town between Ravensthorpe and Esperance in Western Australia’s Mallee bioregion. Colour and flower size are varied to suggest the increasing vulnerability of the species in the natural environment.

In WA alone there are 450 flora deemed threatened with 12 species have been identified as extinct. The national figures reflect the severity of this problem across the continent. A drying climate, habitat loss and land use all contribute.
