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.
Type:"Brass 20203 (holo, L; iso A, BRI, K), Annan R., Cape York, N. Queensland."
Etymology:"(Named for the late Netta E. Gray.)"
Comment:The specific epithet was published by de Laubenfels as "grayii" but he also states that the taxon was named in honour of one female person with the surname Gray. The epithet is thus corrected here to grayae in accordance with ICN Art. 60.8 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
