Name Status. Non-Current Name
Name Type. Orthographic variant   Source. WorldWideWattle
Accepted Name. Acacia dorothea Maiden
Notes. The Australian Plant Census (APC) notes: In making the new combination in Racosperma, Pedley 'corrected' the spelling of the species epithet from a noun in apposition to a genitive adjective, preferring to give precedence to Rec. 23A rather than Art. 23 of the ICBN. As the original spelling was not an 'error' and therefore not available for correction, and because Articles take precedence over Recommendations, this is inadmissible, and the original use of a noun in apposition is retained here.

TYPE INFORMATION

Type. Based on Acacia dorothea Maiden
