Australian Plant Name Index (APNI)
The Australian Plant Name Index (APNI) is a tool for the botanical community that deals with plant names and their usage in the scientific literature, whether as a current name or synonym. APNI does not recommend any particular taxonomy or nomenclature. For a listing of currently accepted scientific names for the Australian vascular flora, please use the Australian Plant Census (APC) link above.
Lectotype:"between Matamata and Maungatautari, New Zealand, Jan. 1842, W.Colenso s.n. (lecto: WELT P003211 n.v.; isolecto: AK135852 n.v."
Text:"Allan (1961, p. 73) cited the type of the name Asplenium hookerianum as ‘W, between Matamata and Mangatuatari. Jan. 1842, W.C.’. This is here treated as effective lectotypification by Allan, in accordance with ICN Art. 7.11 (Turland et al. 2018). Allan’s abbreviaton ‘W’ corresponds to the Te Papa Herbarium, Botany Department, Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa (WELT) (see Allan 1961, p. xlii)."
