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.
Showing Macrozamia spiralis var. diplomera

APC Comment: Chapman, APNI: 1918 (1991) listed a "Macrozamia spiralis var. diplomera Benth., nom. illeg, non A.DC." Bentham clearly referred to "F.Mueller" and cited one of the same syntype collections "Castlereagh River, C.Moore" cited by Mueller (1866). This name should therefore be considered merely a later usage of M. spiralis var. diplomera F.Muell. and not an illegitimate later homonym.
