  • Comment: Womersley (1994:446) indicates that the type of H. coenomyce is probably referrable to H. ramentacea although he does not make the synonymy. He also states that the Australian records are H. ramentacea. Thus I have included all Australian records of H. coenomyce as H. ramentacea. See also Silva et al 1996 Univ Calif Public Bot. 79:295.
