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 species name is derived from the Latin fecundus (fruitful, fertile, prolific) in allusion to the large number of pods produced. The common name acknowledges the Mosquito Creek Basin, a restricted geological feature of Achaean age located to the east of Nullagine that is overlain by the Mosquito Creek Formation. Almost all populations of A. fecunda are restricted to the Mosquito Creek Basin."
