Mimosaceae - Acacia - Australian National Botanic Gardens

Note that in making the combination in Racosperma Pedley (2003) inadvertently used the incorrectrank for the basionym. However this does not affect the validity of his combination.WAAcacia drummondii subsp. elegans Porongurup variant (R.J.Cumming 938) WA Herbarium[FloraBase]WAAcacia dunnii TurrillAcacia sericata var. dunnii MaidenAcacia neurocarpa A.Cunn. ex Hook.Racosperma dunnii (Turrill) PedleyThe typification of A. holosericea, A. dunnii and A. neurocarpa is discussed in detail in Maslin &Thomson (1996), and of A. dunnii by Pedley (2003). Turrill (1922) cited A. sericata var. dunnii as asynonym with a full and direct reference to the place of publication when describing A. dunnii.However, as he described A. dunnii as 'sp. nov.' this is accepted (following Pedley, 2003) as a newname at species rank rather than a new combination.WA, NT (native & naturalised)Acacia dura Benth.Racosperma durum (Benth.)
