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.

APC Comment:
G.Bentham, Fl. Austral. 4: 554 (1868) includes "three principal varieties or perhaps species" in this taxon: densiflora, distans and paniculata. These entities were treated at the rank of "?subsp." by A.D.Chapman, Austral. Pl. Name Index 1645-1646 (1991), but are here treated as unranked, in accordance with ICBN Art. 35.3 (Vienna Code) (2006).
