  • Lectotype: TASMANIA: Hobart Town, Gunn 1416, Oct 1840; lecto (here chosen) K; probable iso NSW. The Gunn specimen is designated as lectotype rather than holotype since Hooker mentions a Mueller specimen (Wilsons Promontory, Mueller, 1853; K, MEL) under 'Distribution'. The Mueller specimen in K is not annotated by Hooker as Chaetospora tenuissima, whereas the Gunn specimen is so annotated and bears sketches of the floral parts by Hooker.
