Abstract
The genus Libertia is revised for New Zealand, with seven species being recognised as endemic. These include three of the species recognised by L. B. Moore (L. grandiflora, L. ixioides, and L. peregrinans), the resurrection of L. micrantha for New Zealand material formerly included within L. pulchella, and three new species, L. cranwelliae, L. edgariae, and L. mooreae. A key is provided for endemic and exotic Libertia in New Zealand. One natural hybrid is reported. A neotype is designated for L. peregrinans, and L. tricolor is placed into synonomy under L. ixioides. No type material is available for L. tricolor and L. macrocarpa.
