Ciaran, None of the Goodenia flowers I looked at had nectary spurs. So should be pinnatifida rather than paradoxa. What were your criteria?

These plants show a superior ovary I think, which puts them in the old concept of Velleia. Plant morphology, including leaf shape and flower branching indicates G.paradoxa as well. I’m not sure about the nectary spur detail?
