Galenia secundahas been included in previous accounts of the State’s flora, but is represented at MEL by only 3 specimens from Geelong and Williamstown collected between 1907 and 1910. It differs from G. pubescensin having the leaves closely clustered on short lateral branches and all growing parts covered by greyish, shining, hollow hairs which are narrowly attached near the base. The cryptic flowers are white or yellowish.
