The Australian Plant Census (APC) is a list of the accepted scientific names for the Australian vascular flora, ferns, gymnosperms, hornworts and liverworts, both native and introduced, and includes synonyms and misapplications for these names. The APC covers all published scientific plant names used in an Australian context in the taxonomic literature, but excludes taxa known only from cultivation in Australia. The taxonomy and nomenclature adopted for the APC are endorsed by the Council of Heads of Australasian Herbaria (CHAH).

Treated as Striga angustifolia by I.R.H.Telford, Fl. Australia 50: 379 (1993), with Striga asiatica in synonymy. However, other treatments (e.g. D.Hong et al., Fl. China 18: 88 (1998)) treat these taxa as distinct, and this circumscription is adopted here. The description of the single CoI specimen cited by Telford is a better match for S. asiatica. -
