1977 A. V. Bogdan Trop. Pasture & Fodder Plants 402 Stylosanthes humilis was known as Townsville lucerne until about 1968–9 when the Queensland Herbage Plant Liaison Committee recommended that the name should be changed to Townsville stylo in order to avoid confusion with species of Medicago.

1989 ILCA Bull. No. 34 10/2 After screening, five Stylosanthes species were recommended as suitable for use: S. guaianensis cultivars Cook, Endeavour and Schofield, S. hamata cv Verano and S. humilis (Townsville stylo).

2010 M. Pearson & J. Lennon Pastoral Austral. vi. 165 With good management, Townsville stylo will thrive on fertile soils in areas with an average rainfall of 25 to 30 inches and higher.
