  • Type: "In nemoribus ad oppidum, Rockhampton, s.dat., Thozet [94] (holo: MEL 540180), labelled as Vitis cordata. "
  • Comment: "The specific epithet ‘cardiophylla’ has been applied to two different species of Cissus L. (IPNI 2023). Standley (1929) described C. biformifolia Standl., from Panama, and C. cardiophylla Standl. from Costa Rica. In the Flora of Costa Rica, Standley (1937) considered these two species to be synonymous and placed C. cardiophylla Standl. into synonymy under C. biformifolia Standl. Jackes (1988) transferred the Australian species Vitis cardiophylla F.Muell. to Cissus as C. cardiophylla (F.Muell.) Jackes, but this name is an illegitimate later homonym of C. cardiophylla Standl. According to the ICN rules (Turland et al. 2018), another name is required for the Australian species. Originally the intention was to rename the species with a new epithet. However, the name Cissus muelleri Planch. is available for this species, having been previously included in the synonymy of C. cardiophylla (F.Muell.) Jackes (Jackes 1988)."
