Kostermans, A.J.G.H. (1964), Bibliographia Lauracearum: 235 [primary reference]

• Comment: Kostermans cites "Hart in Victor. Natur., l.c." [i.e., T.S.Hart, Vict. Nat. 42: 80, 81 (1925)], but the name is given there as Cassytha pubescens var. macrostachya, nom. inval., nom. nud.

• Text: "This name was attributed to T.S.Hart (Victorian Naturalist 42: 79 (1925)) by A.J.G.H.Kostermans (1964), and listed in the Australian Plant Name Index (1991) as an invalid name, not accepted by the author. In fact it is a typographical error by Kostermans. Hart was discussing specimens of Cassytha pubescens labelled as C. pubescens var. macrostachya by F. von Mueller. Mueller never published this name, and Hart does not accept it. The lectotype recorded in the Australian Plant Name Index is the result of a typesetting error, and is the lectotype of C. racemosa."
