Craven, L. A.:  Typification of the name Regelia and transfer of Melaleuca sprengelioides to Beaufortia (Myrtaceae). – Taxon 48: 53-55. 1999. – ISSN 0040-0262.

Regelia, through its type R. ciliata, is here typified by a specimen that enables current usage of the name to be preserved. The name that has been considered by some botanists to be the base name of R. ciliata, Melaleuca sprengelioides, represents a species of Beaufortia and is newly transferred to that genus.
