Vascular Plants
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.
Comment:A note at the beginning of Mueller's paper, signed by G.Bentham, states "In the few cases where I clearly identified them [i.e. Mueller's new species] with others previously described, I have given the published names, adding his manuscript ones for the purpose of reference, and retaining his characters as completing our previous knowledge of the plants.". These names, proposed by Mueller but placed in synonymy by Bentham and thus invalidated by him, are here attributed to Bentham alone.
