• Text: "Kramer and Tindale (1976, p. 99) cited the type of the name Lindsaea media as ‘holotype: North Coast, Island G 2 (Australia), R. Brown 82, 18–24.ii.1803 (BM). Isotypes: (K, E). Possible isotypes: (P, U)’. This is here treated as effective lectotypification by Kramer and Tindale in accordance with ICN Art. 7.11 (Turland et al. 2018). Because their citation meets the relevant requirements of ICN Art. 7.11, the use of the term ‘holotype’ is correctable under ICN Art. 9.10."
