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: "The epithet is arbitrarily derived from the Greek combining forms ana- (back or bottom), apo- (front or top), and -eidos (resemblance) and refers to the leaves being of quite similar appearance on each surface, that is, they approach being isobilateral, being distinguishable only by a small nectary on the main vein of the abaxial side of the leaf. The leaves of all other species of section Grandicalyx are distinctly dorsiventral."
