Lax to weakly erect sub-shrub or short-lived perennial herb to 20-50 cm tall. Stems slender, woody, upright even when weighted by fruits; initially single stemmed, with strong lateral branching beginning at ca. 7 cm; internode length on mature stems ca. 1.5 cm. Overall plant aspect dark green to gray-green, becoming slightly more yellow-green with age; pubescence of stems short and loose; moderately to densely pubescent throughout with stellate stalked trichomes, the stalk 0.05-0.1 (rarely to 0.2) mm long, with 6-8 rays 0.2-0.4 mm long, the midpoint elongate, to 0.4 mm long. Prickles sparse to moderately dense, straw-colored, straight, slightly widened at base,

1.5-5 cm, linear to lanceolate or elliptic, with 1-4 pairs of primary veins, with only a few prickles along midvein on leaf undersides; young leaves lighter green and gray-hairy but becoming dark green above, slightly paler beneath, both sides closely and densely stellate-pubescent, the older leaves becoming scabrous and uniformly dark on both sides, retaining dense pubescence primarily only along veins; base tapering; margins deeply incised and 6-12 lobed, occasionally shallowly lobed or nearly linear; apex blunt; petiole 0.3-2.3 cm long with few to no prickles. Inflorescence a supra-axillary andromonoecious cyme 1-6.5 cm long, consisting of a basal hermaphrodite flower and a distal group of 2-5 (usually) staminate flowers; typically 2-5 staminate flowers open at a time; common peduncle typically 1.5-2.5 mm long; rachis slightly less pubescent than stems. Flowers 5-merous, heterostylous with a single hermaphroditic flower at the base of the inflorescence and the plants andromonoecious. Hermaphrodite flower ca. 1.5-3 cm below the staminate flowers, usually opening first or soon after lowest 1-2 staminate flowers; pedicel ca. 2 cm long at anthesis, elongating further after fertilization, armed with prickles 1-4 mm long; calyx lobes ca. 11-15 mm long and fused for first 2-3 mm, some pairs occasionally fused entirely with sepals arranged 2+2+1, armed with long, straight prickles and stellate trichomes; corolla 2.5-4.5 cm in diameter, medium purple, rotate, free of indumentum; stamens equal; filaments ca. 1.5 mm long; anthers 5 mm long, oblong-lanceolate to somewhat tapered, poricidal at the tips, in a tight anther cone; ovary glabrous, ca. 2 mm diameter at anthesis; style 6-11.5 mm long (including capitate stigma), curved. Staminate flowers with pedicels 9-14 mm long, unarmed or with few prickles; calyx lobes 6-10 mm long and fused for first 1-2 mm, occasionally 2+2+1 as above, with a few 1-4 mm weak prickles or prickles absent; corolla 2.5-3.5 cm in diameter, medium purple, broadly stellate to rotate; acumens ca. 0.5 mm long; stamens of same proportions as in hermaphrodite flower; ovary, style, and stigma vestigial and not exserted beyond the stamens. Fruit a globose berry 1.6-1.8 cm long, 1.5-2.0 cm wide, light green with darker green stripes when young, maturing to creamy yellow; flesh firm; locules 2, liquid-filled; fruit wall ca. 2.2 mm thick; fruits retained on plant after maturation. Fruiting pedicels 1.2-2.3 cm long. Fruiting calyx enclosing and exceeding fruit in early development, eventually covering 1/4 to 1/3 of developed fruit, the lobes narrowly triangular, long-acuminate, blunt-tipped, turning brown and weakly reflexing as fruit matures, short stellate-pubescent and armed with sharp spines 2-5 mm long, these single or paired along the calyx sutures. Seeds up to ~135 per fruit, 2.8-3.6 mm long, dark brown to black, flat, reniform, finely reticulate.

falls into the Vulnerable (VU) category under Criterion B (B1ab(iii)+2ab(iii)). The VU designation is the lowest of three threatened categories, but indicates the taxon still faces a high risk of extinction in the wild. It has an Area of Occupancy <2000 km2 and Extent of Occurrence <20,000 km2, less than 10 known locations that are possibly fragmented, and observed decline in overall habitat quality. Suitable habitat will continue to decline without active conservation management.

(and the occasionally linear leaf lobes/blades) are quite visually distinctive - and this character holds up in comparison to the close relatives in both field collections and in cultivation. The new species maintains a distinct geographic distribution from its closely related congeners, inhabiting limited areas on gray-brown clayey soil with limestone stones and laterite pebbles in the region of Limmen National Park in the northeastern portion of the Northern Territory. The species is named after Peter Jobson, Senior Botanist at the Northern Territory Herbarium at Alice Springs, who organized and led the expedition during which the new species was most recently collected and confirmed as distinct.

). Notably, the use of trained biodiversity scientists in surveys of the proposed parkland provided masses of data in support of protecting this area as a national treasure. The discovery of the new species described here, and the potential description of other new forms of biodiversity from Limmen NP, is a testament to the benefits of not only investing in national parks in Australia and elsewhere, but also investing in parks-based scientific inquiry.
