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.

Etymology:"The epithet is derived from the Latin commiscens, mixing or mingling, in recongition of the close relationship and past confusion between this taxon and subsp. betchei and C. dactylotes."
Text:"Specimens in other herbaria have often been labelled by me as 'C. dactylotes (long-glumed form)'."
