Adams (1994), recognized a single species of Melanthalia for New Zealand, M. abscissa (Turner) Hook.f. & Harv., the type material of which was collected by Joseph Banks on Capt. James Cook’s first voyage to New Zealand (1769–1770) from the Bay of Islands. However, recent work suggests the presence of three distinct taxa within Melanthalia in New Zealand, and that these are distinct from taxa from Australia (Nelson et al. 2013).
