A revision of the genus Agathis (Araucariaceae) in Australia.

Abstract

The status of the Australian species of Agathis Salisb. is reviewed. Although only three species are involved, there has been a considerable amount of nomenclatural confusion. One new species is described from north Queensland, A. atropurpurea Hyland. A. palmerstonii F. Muell. is a synonym of A. robusta (C. Moore ex F. Muell.) F.M. Bail.
