Name

  • Beaufortia R.Br., , Hort. Kew., ed. 2 [W.T. Aiton] 4: 418. (1812)
  • Type species: Beaufortia decussata R.Br., Hort. Kew., ed. 2 [W.T. Aiton] 4: 418. (1812)

Note: Now sometimes accepted as a synonym of Melaleuca L., Mant. Pl. 1: 14 (1767), but this now appears to be a taxonomic opinion and it is commonly found as a segregate in Australian flora (Burbidge, 2016). Therefore, this taxon page must remain until consensus has been reached.
