Notes on the identity and status of Western Australian phrase names in Corymbia and Eucalyptus (Myrtaceae)
NICOLLE, D., FRENCH, M.E. AND THIELE, K.R.

A total of 27 phrase names in Corymbia K.D.Hill & L.A.S. Johnson (1) and Eucalyptus L'Hér. (25) which occur at least partly in Western Australia have been assessed with respect to their identity and status. Of these 27 phrase names, we recommend that 14 be removed from duplicate names (taxonomically matching another phrase name or published taxon), are taxonomically indistinct or very poorly understood, or are considered to represent hybrids. We erect eight new phrase names for Eucalyptus in Western Australia.
