Vascular Plants
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.
Comment:Generic names with the suffix "-spadix" may be treated as either masculine or feminine. Drude and Wendland used the masculine ending for their single species, Laccospadix australasicus.This nomenclatural tradition is adopted here following Art. 62.1 (Melbourne Code, 2012).
