New combinations in the genus Dysphania (Chenopodiaceae)
SHEPHERD, K.A. AND WILSON, PAUL G.
A long standing recognition of a possible affinity between Dysphania R.Br. and Chenopodium L. subg. Ambrosia A.J.Scott has been corroborated by molecular phylogenetic evidence. While the North American species of C. subg. Ambrosia have been transferred to Dysphania this has not occurred elsewhere. In light of this, new combinations are made here for the Australian and New Zealand species of C. subg. Ambrosia. A key to the Australian species of Dysphania is provided.
