Calycopeplus paucifolius is an erect shrub species in the family Euphorbiaceae.[4] It is found in South Australia & Western Australia.[3]
Calycopeplus paucifolius is a broom-like shrub, growing from 60 cm to 5 m high. Its flowers are green-white, and seen from September to December on hillslopes and granite outcrops, growing on stony loams, sands and sandy clays.[4]
The species was first described as Euphorbia paucifolia in 1845 by Johann Friedrich Klotzsch,[1][5] but was transferred to the genus, Calycopeplus, by Henri Ernest Baillon in 1866.[2]
