Typification of Gnaphalium collinum var. monocephalum (Gnaphalieae: Asteraceae) and clarification of related material
FLANN, C., WILSON, PAUL G. AND WIERENGA, J.J.
The protologue of Gnaphalium collinum var. monocephalum Hook.f. cites three gatherings which are now considered to be referable to three different taxa known by the names Euchiton lateralis (C.J.Webb) Breitw. & J.M.Ward, Euchiton traversii (Hook.f.) Holub and Argyrotegium mackayi (Buchanan) J.M.Ward & Breitw. This has caused confusion regarding the typification and application of J.D.Hooker’s varietal name. This article resolves the uncertainty and provides a corrected synonymy for all the taxa involved.
