THE INTERNATIONAL PROTEACEAE REGISTER & CHECKLIST

The International Proteaceae Register and Checklist provides for registration of cultivar names of all members of the Family Proteaceae, excluding the Australian genera. All genera that fall within the scope of this Register and Checklist are included in this publication. The collective name "Proteas" is used when generally referring to genera of this family. Cultivar names of the Australian genera of the Family Proteaceae are registered at the Australian Cultivar Registration Authority (ACRA).

For ease of reference the Register and Checklist have been combined. See format of entries for distinction between registered and non-registered cultivar names.

Breeders and introducers of Protea cultivars are urged to register their cultivar names, preferably before commercialisation of the cultivar to ensure that the name is unique. However, registration could take place after commercialisation has commenced. Registration concerns all named cultivars.

Registration forms can be obtained from: The ICRA for Proteaceae, Directorate Genetic Resources, Private Bag X5044, STELLENBOSCH 7599, South Africa.

The following abbreviations are used where appropriate:

Ld = Leucadendron; Ls = Leucospermum; P = Protea; S = Serruria

APVJ = Australian Plant Variety Journal; ARC = Agricultural Research Council; Hort. Abstr. = Horticultural Abstracts; ICRA = International Cultivar Registration Authority; NBI = National Botanical Institute; SANF = South African Nature Foundation; VOPI = Vegetable and Ornamental Plant Institute (an institute of the ARC in South Africa);

PBR = Plant Breeders' Rights; IPCR = International Proteaceae Cultivar Register;

(=...) = synonym

AU = Australia; CA = California; HI = Hawaii; IL = Israel; NZ = New Zealand; USA = United States of America; ZA = South Africa; ZW = Zimbabwe

The format of entries for registered cultivar names is as follows: Cultivar name; parentage (in italics); the names of those involved in the breeding, introduction and registration of the plant with the relevant dates (O = originator; H = date hybridised; S = date selected; N = named by...; I = introducer; REG = registrant. Where a date is given without a name, it can be assumed that the person or organisation involved is that immediately preceding it e.g. N: VOPI I & REG: 1979, in which VOPI named the cultivar, introduced it and registered the name in 1979); a short description of the flower head and time of flowering. Unless otherwise indicated, all flowering dates given are for the Southern Hemisphere.

The format of entries for the Checklist is as follows: Cultivar name followed by parentage, name of originator, date selected (if known), country of origin, plant breeders' rights (PBR) if applicable, flower characteristics (if available), remarks, publication.

In the case of duplicate names, priority is determined by registration in the IPCR (or otherwise e.g. PBR), followed by date of publication. Duplicate names are indicated with an "*".

If any information is incomplete or incorrect, please do not hesitate to supply the ICRA for Proteas with the necessary information.

All Proteaceae cultivar names that have been registered up to July 31, 2002 are included in this publication. New additions to the Register are indicated with a "#".
