  • Text: "Typification: Of the three original syntypes for Cissus muelleri, only the collection by R. Daintree has been located. This collection was referred to by Planchon as "Mueller, herb. Melb.”, but was actually collected by R. Daintree as indicated by the label “Vitis, Kennedy District, R. Daintree” on MEL 565994. There is an additional blue label attached to the specimen which indicates it was collected on the “Basalt Wall, Fletcher’s Creek, North Kennedy”. A second sheet (MEL 565993) of what is apparently the same collection has had some of this information added with later labels. Although I have not seen a specimen labelled as Gulliver 204 from the Hodjkinson River, Gulliver 804 from the Hodjkinson Hodgkinson) River (MEL 565093) is C. muelleri; it is possible that the hand-written number was incorrectly transcribed by Planchon. The third syntype (a collection by Dallachy) has not been located to date."
