Astroloma (Ericaceae) 2:424    
Tasmania has two species of Astroloma. A. pinifolium is a reasonably common, small upright shrub with very narrow, spreading leaves, giving a crude resemblance to a pine seedling. The flowers are quite long and yellow. A. humifusum is almost ubiquitous in dry sclerophyll forests and grassy woodlands. It is a low, spreading shrub with slightly broader leaves and red flowers. The leaves have fine hairs along the margins.
