  • Type: "... many South Queensland freshwater swamps being now overrun with it ... It is the common grass of our town gutters."
  • Comment: While the use of the epithet normale may be used in some cases to refer to a typical infraspecific taxon, there is no clear indication in the protologue that the type of the species name was included. The name is thus here treated as validly published (ICN Art. 24.3 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
