Abstract The original journal publications of
four Cheeseman species have been overlooked by later botanists because
the descriptions were repeated 2—4 years later as "n.
sp." and "n.
comb." in the 2nd edition (1925) of his Manual of New Zealand
Flora. The implications of these later erroneous citations are
discussed.
