  • Text: "As noted by M.D.Tindale (op. cit.) 343 [i.e. Contr. New South Wales Natl Herb. 2: 343 (1956)], the type of this species, recorded as having been collected on Mt Lindesay in Australia, matches exactly the type of C. grevilleana Mart. (1834) from Jamaica; it is excluded here on the assumption that it was an error in specimen labelling."
