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).

The monotypic genus Huxleya was transferred to Clerodendrum by D.A.Steane, R.P.J. de Kok & R.G. Olmstead, Mol. Phylogenetics & Evol., 32: 39–45 (2004). Subsequently, Y.W.Yuan, D.J.Mabberley, D.A.Steane & R.G.Olmstead, Taxon 59: 125–133 (2010) recognised Ovieda and Volkameria as segregates from Clerodendrum, and include the Australian taxa Clerodendrum inerme and Huxleya linifolia in Volkameria. Yuan et al. indicate further research is needed and that additional transfers of Australian Clerodendrum species to Volkameria may be required. A conservative approach is adopted here, with Ovieda and Volkameria retained in Clerodendrum, and Huxleya maintained as a monotypic genus until further data is available. -
