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).

Spelling of the generic name Caelebogyne has been the subject of some debate. R.K.Brummitt, pers. comm. (2008) argues for adoption of "Caelebogyne", viz: "It appears to be written as "Coelebogyne", but the 'oe' is ligatured and I think it has to be read as 'ae'. … The prefix caelebo- means 'unmarried' (as in the modern word 'celibate'), and is obviously what Smith meant because the plant produced fruits without being pollinated." The 'ae' spelling is therefore adopted here. -
