Chenopodium spinescens (common names: spiny saltbush, berry saltbush) is a species of plant in the amaranth family, endemic to Australia.[2] It is found in all states and territories of Australia with the exception of Tasmania[4]
Taxonomy
Chenopodium spinescens was first described by Robert Brown in 1810 as Rhagodia spinescens[5][6], and the assignation of this plant to the genus, Rhagodia and to the family, Chenopodiaceae remains the taxonomy accepted by the Commonwealth Heads of Australian Herbaria.[7] In 2012, Suzy Fuentes Bazán & Thomas Borsch included the genus Rhagodia within the genus, Chenopodium and into the broader family, Amaranthaceae,[3], a change accepted by Kew.[2]
