The four sepals are narrow triangular, long and wide. The four petals are glabrous, mostly long and wide and more or less hairy on the outer parts of the upper surface. The eight stamens alternate in length, the shorter ones opposite the petals. The fruits are shiny and glabrous, long and about wide.
Taxonomy and naming.
"Boronia alulata" was first formally described in 1863 by George Bentham from an unpublished description by Daniel Solander. The description was published in "Flora Australiensis" from a specimen collected from near the Endeavour River. The specific epithet ("alulata") is the diminutive form of the Latin word "alatus" meaning "winged", hence "with narrow wings".
