Comments:
  • an illegitimate, superfluous name (Melbourne ICN Art. 52) for Banksea J. Koenig, or (if that name comes to be treated as sufficiently alike to be confusable and a later homonym of Banksia J. R. Forst. & G. Forst. and Banksia L. f.) for the homotypic Hellenia Retz. (1791)
  • a binding decision (Melbourne ICN Art. 53.5) on the confusability of Banksea and Banksia is needed to determine whether Banksea or Hellenia should be accepted for this taxon
