Note.

There is also a specimen at K collected by Frederick M. Bailey from the Johnstone River in August 1892 - K000880982. Bailey, the author of the name, had been Colonial Botanist for Queensland since 1881 but Schot’s choice of this specimen as an isotype (Schot, 1994: 29) is incorrect as the holotype cited in the protologue was collected by Thomas Lane Bancroft, moreover, Bailey’s specimen was collected two years after the protologue was published.
