REMARKS

Vieillard (1862) treats usage of vascular plants in New Caledonia, without intention of describing new taxa. Thus the name must be considered as illegitimate ( McNeill et al. 2006: Art 32.3.). There is no information on seeds, and this name has been suspected to represent AAB-cultivar subgroup ( Simmonds 1960b). It was described from New Caledonia, and it is a common ornamental plant in Hawaii.
