Text:
"Hermann-Erlee & van Royen (1957), selected a Robert Brown specimen as a 'lectotype' (neotype) overlooking the sheet in BM that has several specimens mounted on it including those collected by Banks and Solander and a specimen from Hort. Kew probably collected by Aiton. The Banks specimen from New South Wales is clearly mentioned by Aiton in contrast to Hermann-Erlee & van Royen’s (1957: 461) claim to the contrary, viz. 'Sideroxylon sericeum 3. S. inerme, foliis ovatis subtus tomentososericeis. Silky Iron-wood. Nat. of New South Wales. Sir Joseph Banks, Bart. [Baronet] Introd. 1772. Fl. Stove Shrubby'."

Text:
"When Dubard published the name Planchonella sericea he did not cite the basionym Sideroxylon sericeum but a nomenclatural synonym (Sersalisia sericea), so in effect described a new species with a new type. His species was included as a synonym by Baehni (1942) under Pouteria sericea (Ait.) Baehni.
