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.

Etymology:"We've talked and corresponded intermittently about daisies for some years and it is with pleasure that I name this species after Mrs Judy Barker,
editor of Australian brachyscomes (Salkin et al. 1995), a co-author
of Australian Daisies for Gardens and Floral Art and Everlasting Daisies of Australia, and at various stages a leader of the Australian Daisy Study Group (a specialist group - currently on hold - within the Australian Native Plants Society) and editor of its newsletter."
