basionym: Laccospadix australasicus H.Wendl. & Drude legitimate
  • Comment: Hooker (and many subsequent authors) attributes the name to "Scheff. in Ann. Jard. Bot. Buitenz. i. 131, 140" [i.e. R.Scheffer, Bull. Jard. Bot. Buitenzorg 1: 131, 140 (1876)]. While Scheffer indicates that Laccospadix australasicus H.Wendl. & Drude should be placed in the genus Calyptrocalyx, he does not make the combination at specific rank.

nomenclatural synonym: Ptychosperma laccospadix Benth. nom. illeg., nom. superfl.
  • Comment: Mueller lists "Ptychosperma Laccospadix = Calyptrocalyx australasicus ...". Since Ptychosperma laccospadix was accepted by Mueller on p. 120 of the Systematic Census (1882) but also in his Second Systematic Census on p. 202, it is assumed that the synonymy here was reconsidered between this Supplement and the Second Systematic Census.
