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.
Text:"Thellung recorded Lepidium reticulatum as having been introduced into Australia. However, Hitchcock (1936) concluded that Thellung had misapplied this name and was describing L. oblongum Small. Duplicates of the specimen referred to by Thellung (MEL74027, 74021 and a probable duplicate MEL 74022) certainly seem to be L. oblongum (see above)."
