These books are out of print, but ANPI has become an interactive online database


Taxonomists and others spend an inordinate amount of time searching for the names that have been given to plants since 1753. The present International Code of Botanical Nomenclature demands this, if plant taxonomy is to be done thoroughly. For Australia, as for most countries, that literature is enormous, in many languages, and not all readily available even in the large libraries overseas.

The Australian Plant Name Index (APNI) has been prepared in order to assist those needing this information. Begun in 1973, it lists all scientific names — more than 62 000 — used for Australian vascular plants in the literature. Almost all have been checked back to the original place of publication. That reference, together with the author of the name, the type citation and supplementary information, is given for each entry.

This work is dedicated to the late Dr Nancy Tyson Burbidge, A.M. (1912–1977). Nancy was a tireless proponent of Australian Botany (including the proposal for a new Flora of Australia) and an active conservationist, ever ready to advise and assist others. She led the Australian Plant Name Index project in its early years.
