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).

Listed by A.D.Chapman, Austral. Pl. Name Index 141 (1991), as the autonym established by A. scabra var. elatior. Agrostis scabra Willd. is regarded as a misapplication to A. parviflora R.Br., although the autonym has not been used in the Australian literature. While G.Bentham, Fl. Austral. 7: 576 (1878), described Agrostis scabra var. elatior under Agrostis scabra R.Br., his varietal name remains valid under the earlier homonym, and thus legitimately establishes the autonym under the earlier homonym of Willdenow.
