Text:"In order to validate Ficus rubiginosa f. glabrescens (F.M.Bailey) D.J.Dixon in accordance with articles 32.3 and 33.3 of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (Greuter et al. 2000), the basionym and publication details for the Bailey name are provided."
Comment:Although Dixon indicates that this publication was necessary to validate the name Ficus rubiginosa f. glabrescens (F.M.Bailey) D.J.Dixon, the name had been validly published at the rank of forma by D.J.Dixon et al., Austral. Syst. Bot. 14: 150-153 (2001). The second publication of the name is thus here treated as an isonym.
