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: A.D.Chapman, Austral. Pl. Name Index 164 (1991), lists "Alpinia modesta Bailey... nom. illeg. non Schumann (1904)?". However, Bailey (1909) cites the authorship of this name as "(F. v. M. ined.) K.Schum.". This is thus here considered to be a secondary reference by Bailey to A. modesta F.Muell. ex K.Schum., rather than an attempt to publish a new name.
