Comment

Eremophila latrobei subsp. warty leaves is distinguished from other subspecies by its very short, prominently warty leaves. It is found on granite outcrops and rocky hills in the Merredin district in Western Australia. Although it is included in the references below it does not appear to have yet been formally described.
