This combination is commonly attributed to G.Bentham, <i>Edwards's Bot. Reg.</i> 21: t. 1770, adnot. (1835). However, while Bentham listed <i>Gratiola juncea</i> Roxb. following his description of the genus <i>Dopatrium</i> in that work he did not definitely associate the genus name and specific epithet as required under ICN Art. 35.2 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
