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.
Comment:Clements and Jones' citation of the place of publication of the basionym as "Dendrobium phalaenopsis Fitzg., Gard. Chron. ser. 2 14: 38 (1880)" is an error to be corrected under ICN Art. 41.8(a) (Shenzhen Code, 2018). Dendrobium phalaenopsis Fitzg. was first published in a letter to the editor of the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper on 8 May 1880, with the name appearing in Gard. Chron. n. ser. 14: 38 (10 July 1880) as a later isonym.
