Banksia kingii Banksia kingii is an extinct species of tree or shrub in the plant genus "Banksia".

Banksia densa Banksia densa is a shrub endemic to Western Australia. It was known as Dryandra conferta until 2007, when all "Dryandra" species were transferred to "Banksia" by Austin Mast and Kevin Thiele. As there was already a plant named "Banksia conferta" (Glasshouse Banksia), Mast and Thiele were forced to choose a new specific epithet; their choice, "densa", is from the Latin "densus" ("thick, close, compact"), in reference to the way the leaves are densely crowded around the inflorescences.
