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:
"In selecting lectotypes, ... In the case of A. sericeus , the 'spikes 3–6' and 'sheaths smooth' apply better to the Paterson River specimens than to the Keppel Bay specimens described in the MS as having 'spikes 4–7' and 'sheaths villosiusculous', the hairs on the sheaths arising from very small tubercles. The Paterson River specimen should be selected as lectotype."
