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).

A name of uncertain application, listed in synonymy of Rumohra adiantiformis (G.Forst.) Ching by M.D.Tindale, Fl. New South Wales 208: 2-7 (1961). The related name Aspidium capense (L.f.) Sw. has been misapplied to Lastreopsis calantha (Endl.) Tindale and Polystichum whiteleggei Watts on NI and LHI respectively, however, Tindale’s concept of Rumohra adiantiformis is restricted to Australian mainland populations only.
