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.

Text:
"Typification: There appear to be two separate
collections of this species made by Sayer in
1887; these have been variously labelled as
being “part of type collection” or “syntype”
by R.D. Hoogland. One is unnumbered and
states “sources of the Russell River”, whereas
the other has the number 133 and states
“Mt Bellenden Ker” or “B Ker”; the latter
specimens are not considered to be syntypes
as the locality does not agree with that given
in the protologue. Specimens bearing the
locality “sources of the Russell River” are
present at K and BRI. The K specimen is
chosen as lectotype as it is the more complete."
