Hooker, J.D. in Hooker, W.J. (1847), Botanical excursion to Mount Olympus, in Van Diemen's Land. London Journal of Botany 6: 484 [secondary reference]
  • Etymology: "I propose naming this most interesting addition to the Tasmanian Flora F. Gunni [G nni - taken as typographical error], after its indefatigable discoverer."
  • Comment: Description very brief, consisting of height, a comment on the resemblance of the leaves to those of F. fusca Hook.f., and frequency. This is here considered to be insufficient under ICN Art. 38.1 (Melbourne Code, 2012).
