Acacia thomae Maslin, legitimate, scientific tax. nov. apni
Maslin, B.R. & van Leeuwen, S. (21 August 2008), New taxa of Acacia (Leguminosae: Mimosoideae) and notes on other species from the Pilbara and adjacent desert regions of Western Australia. Nuytsia 18: 176-180, Fig. 10 [tax. nov.]
  • Type: "Mount Channar Range, 24 km south-east of Paraburdoo, Western Australia, 6 August 2006, E. Thoma 1026 (holo: PERTH 07398409; iso: CANB, G, K, MEL, NSW)."
common name: Thoma's Wattle [n/a]
  • Etymology: "This species is named for Emil Thoma, Botanical Advisor with Pilbara Iron. Emil has worked in the Pilbara region for 30 years during which time he has provided the authors with much assistance (particularly in the form of specimens and information) concerning the Acacia flora of that region. Apart from Acacia Emil has been instrumental in documenting the distribution of numerous Declared Rare and Priority Flora species in the Pilbara region, has recorded many new plant records for the region and has collected several novel taxa including Ptilotus subspinescens. The epithet 'thoma' is used here deliberately as a noun in apposition, thus requiring no change by the addition of a case ending."
  • Comment: Despite the author's statement that the species epithet is a noun in apposition that does not require a case ending, it is also acknowledged as being derived from a personal name and the termination is thus subject to correction under ICN Art. 60.8 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
