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: The specific epithet weeliwolli is from the Australian Aboriginal words meaning "we are water running" or simply "running water". The type location along Weeli Wolli Creek falls within the region used by the linguistic group known as the Nyiyaparli (sometimes incorrectly spelt Niapaili). This nomenclatural information was provided by Gordon Uline, a senior law person in this language group and communicated to us by Dr Stephen van Leeuwin, CALM, Karratha.
