''Actinotus'' is a genus of flowering plants of the Mackinlayaceae family, with about 18 species. It is native to Australasia. Its best known member is the flannel flower, a common site in Sydney bushland in the spring. The generic name, meaning "furnished with rays" is derived from the Greek stem ''aktin-''/ακτιν- "ray" or "sunbeam".〔 〕 Most species are endemic to Australia with one from New Zealand. Other notable species are ''A. schwarzii'' from the Macdonnell Ranges in Central Australia, which closely resembles ''A. helianthi'' in appearance, and the rare pink-flowering ''A. forsythii'' from the Blue Mountains.〔 Species include: *''Actinotus bellidioides'' (Hook.f.)
