Content needing to be copied from draft article

I've just stumbled upon the following article that was drafted up regarding F. Gunni but which was rejected, mainly because this article already existed.

Would an author with more expertise on this species like to review the content of the draft article with an eye to transferring the relevant material not already covered?

New genera

The new genera (Lophozonia, Fuscospora etc.) have not been accepted outside New Zealand. For example, see:

They were New Zealanders, who changed the nomenclature. As Nothofagus exists at least in six countries outside New Zealand (Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, France (New Caledonia), Australia, Chile, Argentina), Nothofagus should still be the genus name in Wikipedia. Thus, all the species articles, at least the species outside New Zealand, should be edited and the old names restored. Probably someone from New Zealand changed the genus names in Wikipedia. Now tree enthusiasts around the world are wondering, what is the valid name. Krasanen (talk) 17:33, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
