NOTES:
  Neptunia acinaciformis (Spanoghe)Miq.: Provisional [03/04/04 10:40] [1998]
  Close to N.triquetra (Vahl)Benth. from India. [1998]
  The name N.acinaciformis has been used, (Windler, Aust.J.Bot.14:393(1966)) [1998]
  but Nielsen(1981, 1985) considers this name ambiguous until the type of [1998]
  Desmanthus acinaciformis Spanoghe, the basionym of N.acinaciformis(Spanoghe) [1998]
  Miq. is located. Until then the name N.javanica has to be maintained. [1998]
