Loranthaceae Juss.
Nuytsia R.Br. ex G.Don , legitimate, scientific
Don, G. (1834), A General History of Dichlamydeous Plants 3: 432 BHL [tax. nov.]
  • Type: Nuytsia floribunda (Labill.) R.Br. ex G.Don
  • Etymology: "...named after Peter Nuyts, a celebrated Dutch navigator, and discoverer of that part of New Holland called Nuytsland..."
  • Comment: Don attributes the genus name to "R. Br. in geogr. soc. trans. vol. 1." [i.e. R.Brown, J. Roy. Geogr. Soc. 1: 17 (1831)]. While Brown indicated that Loranthus floribundus Labill. should be called Nuytsia floribunda he did not provide a separate description for the genus as required by ICN Art. 38.1 (Melbourne Code, 2012).
