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.
Etymology:"This species is named in honour of the late Edward J. Gregson, of Mt Wilson, whose keen and accurate observations on eucalypts, especially of the Blue Mountains area, were of great value during the 1950's. The senior author owes much to his companionship in the field during those years. The epithet also commemorates E.J. Gregson's father, Jesse Gregson, who collected extensively at Mt Wilson during the early part of this centruy."
