• Lectotype: "Mount Macalaster [Rockingham Bay], Queensland, 11 July 1865, J.Dallachy s.n. (lecto: MEL 114975*"

• Text: "Brownsey (1998b, p. 302) cited the type of the name Asplenium simplicifrons as ‘Mt Macalaster, Rockingham Bay, Qld, J.Dallachy; holo: MEL’. This is here treated as effective lectotypification by Brownsey, in accordance with ICN Art. 7.11 (Turland et al. 2018). Because Brownsey’s citation meets the relevant requirements of ICN Art. 7.11, his use of the term ‘holo’ is correctable under ICN Art. 9.10."
