History

The journal was first published in 1977, replacing Contributions from the Queensland Herbarium (1968 –1977). The journal was renamed after the Queensland endemic genus Austrobaileya, first described by C.T. White in 1933 from north Queensland. It has a single species, Austrobaileya scandens C.T. White and is currently assigned to a family of its own, Austrobaileyaceae, with affinities to a number of primitive families. The full set includes 535 scientific papers with descriptions of more than 1,000 species new to science.
