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.

Text:
"Although H. dentata and its derivative names have long been cited with authorship ‘R.Br. ex DC.’, we have found no evidence of Brown’s role in establishing this name. There is no indication on any original Brown labels that he suggested this name, so we have simplified the authority of this, as well as that of H. angustifolia and its derivatives, to de Candolle alone."
