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.

Mueller lists "Ipomoea reptans = I. aquatica ...". Since Ipomoea reptans was previously accepted by Mueller on p. 95 of the Systematic Census (1882), Ipomoea aquatica is here treated as being a newly-accepted name in this Supplement.
