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.

Etymology: "Named after the collector of the type [of Eucalyptus calycogona var, spaffordii Blakely], W.J. Spafford..." -
Text: "This taxon was first recognized by Blakely (1934). Unfortunately Blakely cited the type specimen in error as collected by W.J. Stafford instead of correctly W.J. Spafford, and in doing so, named the variety staffordii Blakely. As the taxon is here recognized as a subspecies, the opportunity is taken to correct the name to subsp. spaffordii."
