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.

Nees cites Mitchell '59' in the original description, but the holotype, which is clearly annotated by Nees, is distinctly numbered '183'. Mitchell 59, in 1835-6 (BM) is also E. setifolia.
