摘要：

A revision of the Australian taxa of the genus Spergularia (Caryophyllaceae) on the basis of herbarium material, field studies and analysis of morphological characters necessitates realignment of some taxa and application of some neglected names, clarifying circumscription and understanding of the species of this genus. Eleven species are here recognised, with five considered indigenous, Spergularia nesophila and S. diandroides described as new and S. tasmanica transferred to Spergularia from Lepigonum. Fruits and seeds provide compelling diagnostic characters in this genus and are used in supplementary dichotomous and tabular diagnostic keys. Scanning electron micrographs (SEMs) illustrate key seed shape and surface features.
