Comment:
  • fide Telopea 9:427. 2001, when published this was an illegitimate, superfluous name (Shenzhen ICN 52) for Malus communis Desf. (1798), i.e. based on the same type (that of Pyrus malus L.)
  • conserved (nom. cons.) against the heterotypic synonyms (Shenzhen ICN 14.4 & App. IV) M. communis, M. pumila, and five other names
