''Melaleuca pustulata'', commonly known as yellow paperbark, warty paperbark or Cranbrook paperbark is a plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae and is endemic to Tasmania in Australia. It is an uncommon shrub, one of only two melaleucas that are endemic to that state and one of only eight found naturally occurring there. It has thick, pimply leaves, hairy new growth and large numbers of heads of pale yellow, fragrant flowers in spring or early summer. ==Description== ''Melaleuca pustulata'' is a densely foliaged shrub, growing to tall with hairy new growth. Its leaves are arranged alternately, sometimes in groups of three and are long, wide, very narrow elliptic to very narrow egg-shaped, roughly semi-circular in cross section and with the ends tapering to a point. The mature leaves have distinct raised oil glands giving the leaves a blistered appearance. The flowers are white to yellowish, scented and arranged in spikes or heads on the ends of branches which continue to grow after flowering. The heads are up to in diameter and contain 15 to 30 individual flowers. The petals are long and fall off as the flower matures. There are five bundles of stamens around the flower, each with 5 to 9 stamens. Flowering occurs from September to January and is followed by fruits which are woody, cup-shaped capsules, long in cylindrical clusters along the stem.〔〔 ''Melaleuca pustulata'' is sometimes confused with ''Melaleuca ericifolia'' which also occurs naturally in Tasmania, however the leaves of that species lack the raised oil glands of ''M. pustulata'' and the outer surface of its flower cup (hypanthium) is hairy.〔
