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:
"Schauer [i.e. J.C.Schauer, Monogr. Myrt. Xerocarp. 190 (1843)] was mistaken in supposing that A. Cunningham's specific name of taxifolia was a misprint; it was intended to allude to the peculiar bifarious arrangement of the leaves in luxuriant branches".
