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.

Lectotype:
"There are two sheets in the herbarium marked by Linnaeus, one being from "Br."
Both are P. colonum as generally understood, though Munro slates that one is P.crusgalli . I should consider the specimen from Browne to be the type, as it answers better to Linnaeus's description. Linnaeus cites Sloane's plate 64, figure 2, but does not use his diagnosis, hence Sloane's plant is not the type."
