Prostanthera eurybioides

Prostanthera eurybioides is a perennial low spreading shrub, less than 1 metre high, endemic to Australia. This plant has a very limited distribution and is a nationally threatened species. Threats to survival include low seedling recruitment, habitat degradation due to weeds, grazing pressure and human influence. Its etymology comes from the Greek for appendage and anther.
