Maiden, J.H. (1920), Notes on Acacias, No. IV, with descriptions of new species. Journal and Proceedings of the Royal Society of New South Wales 53: 182-186 BHL [tax. nov.]
  • Type: "Wong Suey's Paddock, Cobar, N.S. Wales (Rev. Archdeacon Haviland, 1917)."
  • Etymology: "Named in honour of Edwin Haviland (1823–1908), for notes and portrait see this Journ. XLII, p. 106, Plate 11; and of his son Archdeacon Francis Ernest Haviland, now of Coonamble, formerly of Cobar, N.S.W. Both have specialised in the fertilisation of Australian plants and have also worked at taxonomy and other branches of botany, and their contributions are mostly to be found in Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W. I was for long, in the early eighties, a weekly companion of the father in botanical excursions chiefly in the Port Jackson district, while the son has been a generous contributor to the National Herbarium of New South Wales, and specially brought this species under my notice."
  • Comment: The species epithet was published by Maiden as "havilandi" but he also states that the taxon was named in honour of two males with the surname Haviland. The epithet is thus corrected here to havilandiorum in accordance with ICN Art. 60.8 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
