Taxonomy

The type material for "B. integrifolia" subsp. "integrifolia" was first collected at Botany Bay on 29 April 1770 by Sir Joseph Banks and Dr Daniel Solander, naturalists on the "Endeavour" during Lieutenant (later Captain) James Cook's first voyage to the Pacific Ocean.cite book | editor = William J.

"compar". This created the autonym "Banksia integrifolia" L.f. var. "integrifolia".APNI | name = Banksia integrifolia var. compar (R.Br.)
