Eucalyptus cometae-vallis Maiden , legitimate, scientific
Maiden, J.H. (1923), A Critical Revision of the Genus Eucalyptus 6(8): 431-432, pl. 239 BHL [tax. nov.]
  • Type: "Comet Vale, Western Australia (J.T. Jutson, No. 239)."
  • Etymology: (not specified.)
  • Comment: The first part of the species epithet is presumed to derive from the genitive form of the Latin for "comet" [cometes], used in reference to the type locality. Maiden's original spelling of the epithet as "comitae-vallis" is thus here considered to be an orthographical error and correctable under ICN Art. 60.1 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
