''Melaleuca punicea'' is a plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae, and is endemic to the Northern Territory in Australia. Some of the characteristics of this species make it difficult to classify at the genus level. After it was originally described in 1984 as ''Melaleuca punicea'', it was transferred in 1986 to the genus ''Regelia'' (as ''Regelia punicea'') but it did not fit well in that genus either. In 1999 it was transferred again to a new genus ''Petraeomyrtus'' as ''P. punicea''. Subsequent molecular studies, especially of chloroplast DNA have suggested that it is best placed in ''Melaleuca'' along with others from genera including ''Beaufortia'', ''Callistemon'' and ''Regelia''. Later publications include this species as ''Melaleuca punicea''. ==Description== ''Melaleuca punicea'' is a spreading shrub growing to about tall. Its leaves are long and wide, with no apparent stalk, narrow triangular in shape, and almost crescent shape in cross section. The flowers are bright red or orange-red and are arranged in heads containing up to 15 individual flowers. The stamens are in five bundles around the flowers, each bundle containing 9 to 13 stamens. Flowering oocurs during the dry season, including from January to November but mainly from June to August and is followed by the fruits which are cup-shaped capsules, although not as woody as in most other melaleucas.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://anpsa.org.au/APOL25/mar02-14.html#item6 )〕
