• Lectotype: "New South Wales: Port Jackson, Sydney, July 1802, R.Brown [Bennett No. 6011] (lecto, here designated): BM 000798897; isolecto: B, BM 000798896; E 00393231; E 00393232; K 000960114, K 000960115)."

• Etymology: "Brown (1810) did not give the source of his name, but this is obviously derived from the Latin palus (a swamp), in reference to the habitat of the species."
• Text: "As there are numerous sheets of the Brown collection and specific details were not provided in the original description by Brown (1810), we here designate a single sheet bearing Brown’s annotation at BM as lectotype."
