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.

APC Comment:
G.Bentham spelled the epithet "omalophylla " in London J. Bot. 1: 365 (1842) following A.Cunningham's manuscript name (see L.Pedley, Austrobaileya 1: 200 (1978)). Since Bentham himself later corrected the name to "homalophylla " in Fl. Austral. 2: 383 (1864), which is etymologically more correct under ICBN Rec. 60A.2 (Vienna Code, 2006), the later orthography is followed here.
