Description
Daviesia eurylobos is a shrub that typically grows to a height of up to 1.5 m (4 ft 11 in) and has spreading branches. Its leaves are reduced to somewhat crowded, egg-shaped to elliptic phyllodes 7–18 mm (0.28–0.71 in) long and 3–7 mm (0.12–0.28 in) wide. The flowers are mostly arranged singly or in pairs in leaf axils on a pedicel 3–5 mm (0.12–0.20 in) long with egg-shaped bracts about 1 mm (0.039 in) long at the base. The sepals are 4–6 mm (0.16–0.24 in) long and joined at the base, the two upper lobes joined for most of their length and the lower three triangular and about 1 mm (0.039 in) long. The standard petal is broadly elliptic, 8–9 mm (0.31–0.35 in) long, 7–8 mm (0.28–0.31 in) wide and yellow with red markings, the wings elliptic and 7–9 mm (0.28–0.35 in) long and the keel 9–10 mm (0.35–0.39 in) long. Flowering occurs in July and August and the fruit is a broadly triangular pod 6–7 mm (0.24–0.28 in) long.[2]
