  • Type: "Western Australia: Dongarra, J.H.Maiden, October 1909 (holo: NSW; iso: CANB, K, MEL, PERTH, US)."
  • Etymology: "It should be noted that, when Maiden and Blakely described E. dongarraensis, the town after which it is named was so spelt. Even though the spelling of the town was later amended to Dongara, Maiden’s epithet is orthographically correct and cannot be changed."
  • Text: "The Australian Plant Name Index (Chapman 1991) cites Maiden’s gathering from ‘Dongarra’ as lectotype of the name but this was the only gathering available to Maiden and the specimen at NSW [NSW 42723] is the holotype. Duplicates sent from NSW to other herbaria are isotypes, some distributed by Maiden (PERTH 01380311; CANB 00412302) and others distributed by L.A.S. Johnson (MEL 1611164; PERTH 01380338; US 00409806)."
