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).

Chapman, APNI 58 (1991) listed an "Acacia longifolia Paxton, nom. illeg." Paxton, Magazine of Botany 12: 269 (1846) described and illustrated an "Acacia longifolia", but on the basis that it was a species that had been known for about 50 years, and cited as synonyms Mimosa longifolia, M. macrostachya and Acacia floribunda. It is clear that he was merely using the existing name A. longifolia (Andrews) Willd. without citing authorities, and not intending to describe a new taxon. -
