Pultenaea elusa (J.D.Briggs & Crisp) R.L.Barrett & Clugston (2021:31)
Elusive bush-pea
Taxonomy & Nomenclature
Synonyms: Pultenaea parrisiae subsp. elusa J.D.Briggs & Crisp in Telopea 5: 652 (1994); Pultenaea elusa de Kok & J.G. West in Austral. Syst. Bot. 17: 288 (2004), nom. inval.
"Note: de Kok and West [93] attempted to raise Pultenaea parrisiae subsp. elusa to the species rank, however they unfortunately cited the entire page range of the publication, so the combination was not validly published (ICN Article 41.5 [181]). We therefore provide a valid combination here."
