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 original spelling of this name was Lechenaultia, but Bentham in Endlicher (1837) and de Candolle (1839) introduced the variant spelling Leschenaultia, which was used fairly consistently from then until the 1950s. A gradual return to the original spelling then occurred. See D.A.Morrison, Brunonia 9: 6 (1987) for discussion. -
