Australian Plant Name Index (APNI)
×
The Australian Plant Name Index (APNI) is a tool for the botanical community that deals with plant names and their usage in the scientific literature, whether as a current name or synonym. APNI does not recommend any particular taxonomy or nomenclature. For a listing of currently accepted scientific names for the Australian vascular flora, please use the Australian Plant Census (APC) link above.

APC Comment:
The monotypic genus Huxleya was transferred to Clerodendrum by D.A.Steane, R.P.J. de Kok & R.G. Olmstead, Mol. Phylogenetics & Evol., 32: 39–45 (2004). Subsequently, Y.W.Yuan, D.J.Mabberley, D.A.Steane & R.G.Olmstead, Taxon 59: 125–133 (2010) recognised Ovieda and Volkameria as segregates from Clerodendrum, and include the Australian taxa Clerodendrum inerme and Huxleya linifolia in Volkameria. Yuan et al. indicate further research is needed and that additional transfers of Australian Clerodendrum species to Volkameria may be required. A conservative approach is adopted here, with Ovieda and Volkameria retained in Clerodendrum, and Huxleya maintained as a monotypic genus until further data is available.
