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: "... was recorded from Norfolk Is. by W.J.Hooker (Syn. Fil. 120, 1868), presumably on the strength of a specimen a Kew simply labelled 'Norfolk Island' in Hooker's hand (and without any other annotation.) This record has not been supported by any further collections and it must be assumed that the specimen was mislabelled."
