The sticky tailflower (Anthocercis viscosa) is a species of shrub native to the south coast of Western Australia. It grows up to 3 metres tall and produces white or cream flowers. Miss R. Mills (active 1836~1842): she was also the main illustrator for Knowles and Westcottfs The Floral Cabinet (1837-1842). Benjamin Maund's The Botanist was a five-volume series that introduced 250 new plants from 1836 to 1842. The series is notable for its many female artists: the plates were drawn by Maund's daughters Sarah and Eliza; Augusta Withers; Priscilla Bury; Jane Taylor; Miss R. Mills among others. The other characteristic is partial colouring - many of the finely detailed copperplate engravings are left with part of the flower and leaves uncoloured.
