• Type: "WESTERN AUSTRALIA: 4 miles (6.4 km) N of well no. 12, Canning Stock Route, H.M. Wilson 6, 5-x-1942 (PERTH)."

• Etymology: "The superficial similarity to Atriplex species, because of the close grey indumentum and the leaf shape, is very characteristic. Although there are few collections, it appears to be very widespread but constant in its characters. The name was suggested by C .A. Gardner on collections in PERTH."
