The genus ''Banksia'' L.f. (Proteaceae) is a 1981 monograph by Alex George on the taxonomy of the plant genus ''Banksia''. Published by the Western Australian Herbarium as ''Nuytsia'' 3(3), it presented George's taxonomic arrangement of ''Banksia'', the first major taxonomic revision of the genus since George Bentham published his arrangement in ''Flora Australiensis'' in 1870. One of the most important contributions of ''The Genus Banksia L.f. (Proteaceae)'' was the publication of ten new species and nine new varieties of ''Banksia''. These were: *''B. aculeata'' (Prickly Banksia) *''B. chamaephyton'' (Fishbone Banksia) *''B. conferta'' (Glasshouse Banksia) (and therefore also the autonym ''B. conferta'' var. ''conferta'', now ''B. conferta'' subsp. ''conferta'') *''B. conferta'' var. ''penicillata'' (now ''B. conferta'' subsp. ''penicillata'') *''B. cuneata'' (Matchstick Banksia) *''B. ericifolia'' var. ''macrantha'' (now ''B. ericifolia'' subsp. ''macrantha'') *''B. gardneri'' var. ''brevidentata'' *''B. gardneri'' var. ''hiemalis'' *''B. grossa'' (Coarse Banksia) *''B. integrifolia'' var. ''aquilonia'' (now ''B. aquilonia'') *''B. lanata'' (Coomallo Banksia) *''B. littoralis'' var. ''seminuda'' (now ''B. seminuda'') *''B. meisneri'' var. ''ascendens'' (now ''B. meisneri'' subsp. ''ascendens'') *''B. micrantha'' *''B. nutans'' var. ''cernuella'' *''B. plagiocarpa'' (Dallachy's Banksia) *''B. saxicola'' (Grampians Banksia) *''B. scabrella'' (Burma Road Banksia) *''B. sphaerocarpa'' var. ''caesia'' *''B. sphaerocarpa'' var. ''dolichostyla'' *''B. telmatiaea'' (Swamp Fox Banksia) In addition, ''B. sphaerocarpa'' var. ''glabrescens'' was redescribed as ''B. incana'', and ''B. quercifolia'' var. ''integrifolia'' was redescribed as ''B. oreophila''. ''B. collina'' was demoted to ''B. spinulosa'' var. ''collina'', and ''B. cunninghamii'' was demoted to ''B. spinulosa'' var. ''cunninghamii''. George further proposed a new infrageneric classification for ''Banksia'', redefining some of the existing sections, demoting Bentham's ''B.'' sect. ''Cyrtostylis'' and ''B.'' sect. ''Orthostylis'' to ''B.'' ser. ''Cyrtostylis'' and ''B.'' ser. ''Orthostylis'' (now ''B.'' ser. ''Banksia'') respectively, and publishing six new series: *''B.'' ser. ''Coccinea'' (now ''B.'' sect. ''Coccinea'') *''B.'' ser. ''Grandes'' *''B.'' ser. ''Tetragonae'' *''B.'' ser. ''Spicigerae'' *''B.'' ser. ''Prostratae'' *''B.'' ser. ''Crocinae'' The classification was widely accepted, and is essentially the one that is in use today. Finally, having examined historical specimens at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and elsewhere, George published lectotypes for most pre-existing ''Banksia'' taxa. ==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「The genus Banksia L.f.
