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.
Comment:Bailey attributes this name to "Benth. and Hook. Gen. Pl. 11. 655". While G.Bentham & J.D.Hooker, Gen. Pl. 2: 655 (1876), indicate their opinion that the taxa treated by A.Richard under Sersalisia should be placed in Sideroxylon they do not definitely associate the genus name and specific epithet as required by ICN Art. 35.2 (Shenzhen Code, 2018). A.D.Chapman, Austral. Pl. Name Index 2653, in obs. (1991), stated that the species combination was also made by Bailey, but Bailey's citation is here treated as a secondary reference to Engler's name with a correctable error in citation.
