Hoya barracki Horne ex Backer

In Journal of the Linnean Society 20 (1883) 369.  J. G. Baker “The Flora of Fiji”. Hoya barracki (Horne “A Year in Fiji” p. 262, name only) is evidently identical with H. bicarinate, A Gray, in Proc. Amer. Acad. v. 335, which is considered by Mr. Bentham (Flor. Australia iv. 316 conspecific with H. australis, R. Br.

Notation: in his “Fijian Plant Studies”, A. C. Smith claims the specimens in Grey Herbarium have pale purple red corollas and pale claret coronas. This is not then H. australis R. Br.. Smith places it with his H. vitiensis. See ... A. C. Smith, -Fijian Plant Studies II a' in Sargentia, page 110-111.  (H. australis in the book).  Smith says that this is not H. australis.
