Olearia ramulosa var. stricta

This name has been applied by Willis (1956) and Walsh & Lander (1999) to plants from inland sites with prominent septate hairs on stems and leaves as well as plants from montane sites with mauve or purplish ray florests and dense gland-tipped hairs on stems - the latter more recently treated as Olearia aff. ramulosa (Omeo). The former are now included in O. ramulosa var. ramulosa (see note under O. ramulosa) and the latter are now treated as Olearia stricta.
