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).

In coining the generic name Amyema, Tieghem assigned it feminine gender. B.A.Barlow treated the genus as neuter, following traditional Greek usage, and adopted this gender in his many treatments of the genus (e.g. Austral. J. Bot. 14: 421-499 (1966), Fl. Australia 22: 91-122 (1984). Barlow subsequently (Blumea 36: 293-381 (1992)) accepted that the gender assigned by Tieghem should be adopted, and this is the position accepted here. -
