  • Comment: A.D.Chapman, Austral. Pl. Name Index 2520-2521 (1991), lists "Richea pandanifolia Gunn... nom. illeg. non J.D.Hook. (1844)". However, Gunn explicitly cites "Richea pandanifolia Hook.fil." in the caption to the accompanying plate. This is thus here considered to be a secondary reference by Gunn to R. pandanifolia Hook.f., rather than an attempt to publish a new name.
