• Lectotype: "Western Australia, s. dat., J. Drummond s.n. (lecto, fide L.A. Craven, Brunonia 10: 119 (1987): CGE n.v.). "

• Text: "Images on Global Plants of possible type sheets that have been annotated by Craven as Calytrix violacea include MEL 86910 and NSW 199380, which are of the Drummond 162 collection, with the latter specimen giving a date of 1843. Two other MEL sheets (86904 and 86911) have the number 162 given in square brackets and no date recorded. We have not listed any of these specimens as possible isolectotypes as it seems unlikely that they are from the same collection as the lectotype ... there are two further images on Global Plants for material that was not cited by Craven (1987). Those sheets, G 00227413 and G 00227414, give the collection as J. Drummond s.n. and the date as 1839. The W and G sheets could possibly be isolectotypes."
