Resumen
MAGOSWANA, Luvo; MANNING, John C.; MAGEE, Anthony R. y BOATWRIGHT, James S.. Othonna sonchifolia L. is an earlier name for Senecio cymbalarifolius L. (Asteraceae: Senecioneae). Bothalia (Online) [online]. 2017, vol.47, n.1, pp.1-4. ISSN 2311-9284. http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/abc.v47i1.2213.
BACKGROUND: Ongoing systematic studies in the African flora necessitate periodic nomenclatural adjustments and corrections. OBJECTIVES: To effect requisite nomenclatural changes. METHOD: Relevant literature was surveyed and type material located and examined. RESULTS: A nomenclatural correction is necessary in Othonna L. and Senecio L. (Asteraceae). CONCLUSIONS: Othonna sonchifolia L. is recognised as the earliest name for Senecio cymbalarifolius (L.) Less. and the new combination Senecio sonchifolius (L.) J.C. Manning & Magoswana is provided for the species. Othonna cymbalarifolia is lectotypified and Senecio hastifolius (L.) Less. is reinstated from synonymy as a species distinct from S. sonchifolius.
