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.

Lectotype:"represented at Kew by a specimen labelled in Kunze's hand "Alsophila Loddigesii Kze., Dicksonia squarrosa, Lodd. H. bot. Lips. 44, sententiam tuam expeto," which I am choosing as lectotype."
