"Banksia tenuis" var. "reptans" is a variety of "Banksia tenuis". It was known as "Dryandra tenuifolia" var. "reptans" until 2007, when Austin Mast and Kevin Thiele sunk all "Dryandra" into "Banksia". Since the name "Banksia tenuifolia" had already been used, Mast and Thiele had to chose a new specific epithet for "D. tenuifolia" and hence for this variety of it.cite journal | author = Mast, Austin R. and Kevin Thiele | year = 2007 | title = The transfer of Dryandra R.Br. to Banksia L.f.
