''Banksia rufa'' is a shrub endemic to Western Australia. It was first published by Carl Meissner in 1855, where it was given the name ''Dryandra ferruginea'' by Richard Kippist. The following year, Meisner published what was purportedly a distinct species, ''Dryandra runcinata''. In 1870, George Bentham maintained ''D. runcinata'', but demoted ''D. ferruginea'' to a variety of ''Banksia proteoides'' (King Dryandra). This stood until 1996, when Alex George restored the specific rank of ''D. ferruginea'', and declared ''D. runcinata'' its synonym. In 2007, all ''Dryandra'' species were transferred to ''Banksia'' by Austin Mast and Kevin Thiele. As the name ''Banksia ferruginea'' had already been published in reference to the plant now known as ''Pimelea ferruginea'', Mast and Thiele had to choose a new specific epithet; their choice, "rufa", is from the Latin ''rufus'' ("reddish"), in references to the red-brown colour of new growth and the involucral bracts. ==References== * * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Banksia rufa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
