Cyanidin-3-xyloside and cyanidin-3-glucoside
have been identified as the major anthocyanin
pigments in Epacris impressa Labill. It has been
shown that the colour gradation evident. in flowers
in natural populations of E. impressa is due to
parallel quantitative differences in both pigments.
Investigation of other parts of the plant has shown
that the same two pigments are present though in
varying proportion.

The Royal Society of Tasmania acknowledges, with deep respect, the traditional owners of this land, and the ongoing custodianship of the Aboriginal people of Tasmania. The Society pays respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that Tasmanian Aboriginal Peoples have survived severe and unjust impacts resulting from invasion and dispossession of their Country. As an institution dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, the Royal Society of Tasmania recognises Aboriginal cultural knowledge and practices and seeks to respect and honour these traditions and the deep understanding they represent.
On 15 February 2021, the Royal Society of Tasmania offered a formal Apology to the Tasmanian Aboriginal people.
