Abstract  Twenty-two names published for New Zealand flowering plants between 1882 and 1997 have as their epithets Maori place-names in the nominative case, counter to the relevant ICBN Recommendations. They can be regarded as validly published but in need of orthographic correction.

Keywords  Nomenclature; geographical epithets; orthography; New Zealand flora
