The Identity of Flindersia pimenteliana and F. oppositifolia (Rutaceae): Evidence from DNA sequences

Nucleotide sequencing of two independent genomic regions has shown that two Flindersia species, F. oppositifolia F. Muell and F. pimenteliana F. Muell were genetically indistinguishable. This coupled with supporting morphological observations by Hartley (1969) and Whiffin (1982) has lead us to reass...

Zusammenfassung:Nucleotide sequencing of two independent genomic regions has shown that two Flindersia species, F. oppositifolia F. Muell and F. pimenteliana F. Muell were genetically indistinguishable. This coupled with supporting morphological observations by Hartley (1969) and Whiffin (1982) has lead us to reassess the taxonomic status of the two species. The new recombination is Flindersia pimenteliana F. Muell. forma oppositifolia (F. Muell.) K. D. Scott, W. K. Harris & J. Playford, comb. & stat. nov.
