• Lectotype: "Nova Hollandia, s. dat., L.Née s.n. (lecto: MA 476507*; possible isolecto: RB 00603399*, SEV H3651*"

• Text: "Parris (1998a) cited the type of the name Woodwardia caudata as ‘Nova Hollandia [Australia], L.Née; holo: MA (photo seen)’. This is here treated as effective lectotypification by Parris, in accordance with ICN Art. 7.11 (Turland et al. 2018). Because Parris’s citation meets the relevant requirements of ICN Art. 7.11, her use of the term ‘holo’ is correctable under ICN Art. 9.10."
