Abstract
The holotype of Lepidium pseudopapillosum Thell. was previously thought to have been collected in New South Wales, Australia, and has been the only specimen lending credence to its occurrence in the state. A review of the type specimen has shown that this is not the case and that the location ascribed to the type in the protologue is in error. It is here posed that L. pseudopapillosum is restricted to South Australia and Victoria, and that in New South Wales this name has been misapplied to L. ginninderrense N.H.Scarlett. The conservation status on state and Commonwealth legislation should be amended to reflect this correction by removing L. pseudopapillosum from New South Wales conservation legislation but listing the species as endangered nationally.
