• Type: (not cited).

• Comment: Published as "MELALEUCA? TRINERVIA", with a statement "...nor can we determine with certainty the genus of this plant". Despite this indication of taxonomic doubt the species name is validly published, following ICN Art. 36.1 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).

• Lectotype: "HOLOTYPE [sic]: NEW SOUTH WALES: [Port Jackson, White] 't. 24, Whites voyage', Sheet 878.11 (top L.H.) herb. Smith (LINN, n.v.)."

• Text: "This specimen [i.e. the lectotype of Melaleuca trinervia J.White] though sterile is identifiable from the illustration. It was matched with the lectotype of L. attenuatum Sm. by D.F. Blaxell, when Australian Botanical Liaison Officer."
• Comment: Although a portion of the specimen collected by White and lodged in LINN was cited by Thompson as the "HOLOTYPE", since the original material also includes an illustration this citation is here considered to constitute an effective lectotypification under ICN Art. 9.10 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
