  • APC Comment: L.Pedley, Austrobaileya 6(3): 455 (2003) inadvertently listed his new combination as "Racosperma carnulosum", citing the basionym as "Acacia carnulosa Maslin". Despite the orthographic error in the basionym and the epithet in Racosperma, this does not invalidate the combination (ICN Art. 41.6, Melbourne Code (2012)). Pedley's later correction in Austrobaileya 6(4): 985 (2004) is again listed as a comb. nov., but this is an isonym.
