• Type: "Lord Howe’s Island, s. dat., Lind & J.P.Fullagar s.n. (lecto: K 000061759*; isolecto: MEL 1061210*,"

• Text: "Green (1994, p. 581) cited the type of the name Cyathea brevipinna as ‘Lord Howe Island, Lind & J.P.Fullagar; holo: K; iso: MEL, NSW’. This is here treated as effective lectotypification by Green in accordance with ICN Art. 7.11 (Turland et al. 2018). Because Green’s citation meets the relevant requirements of ICN Art. 7.11, his use of the term ‘holo’ is correctable under ICN Art. 9.10."
