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: "Named after Richard T. Hubbard, who prepared a detailed manuscript for the entire Myrtaceae of Western Australia. Little of this great undertaking was published (see Hubbard 1976: 41 [ i.e. Western Melaleuca - digest of Western Australian species. Australian Plants 9: 15-27 & 35-41.]) but the whole work is preserved in the Department of Parks and Wildlife library. The part of the manuscript dealing with Thryptomene was submitted to the then expert on the genus, John Green, for comment in 1979."
