Daviesia nova-anglica is an erect shrub that typically grows to a height of up to and has arching branches and hairy branchlets. The phyllodes are sharply-pointed, egg-shaped to narrow egg-shaped, long and wide. The flowers are usually arranged singly on a peduncle long with bracts long at the base. The five sepals are long and joined at the base, the two upper lobes more or less fused and the lower three triangular. The petals are yellow with red or maroon markings, the standard petal long, the wings long and the keel sac-like and about long. Flowering occurs from August to October and the fruit is a flattened pod long.[1] [2]
Daviesia nova-anglica was first formally described in 1990 by Michael Crisp in the journal Australian Systematic Botany from specimens collected east of Tenterfield in 1984.[3]
This species of pea mainly grows in sandy soil, usually derived from granite, in open forest with a scrubby understorey. It mainly occurs on the Northern Tablelands of New South Wales.
