REMARKS

Original material could not be located. The variation does certainly not represent an infraspecific taxon of M. banksii , or of M. acuminata Colla subsp. burmannica , as Simmonds (1957) suggested. It is either a distinct species, or perhaps a variety of M. flaviflora N.W.Simmonds , since there are seeds. Singh et al. (2001) and Uma et al. (2005) do not recognize this name.
