  • Comment: Jones & Clements cite the basionym for this name as "Chiloglottis formicifera Fitzg.". While the authors give the incorrect species epithet for the basionym, they provide a full and direct reference to its author and place of valid publication. This is here treated as a clear indication of the intended basionym under ICN Art. 41.5 (Melbourne Code, 2012) and the combination as validly made.
