Pilostyles aethiopica Welwitsch, Trans. Linn. Soc. London 27: 66–70. 1871 = Berlinianche aethiopica (Welw.) Vattimo-Gil nom. inval. – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Pilostyles holtzii Engler, Bot. Jahrb. Syst. 46: 293. 1912 = Berlinianche holtzii (Engl.) Vattimo-Gil, not validly published. Type: Tanzania, Kilimatinde, July 1907, parasitic on Berlinia eminii Taub., W. Holtz 1422 (B, destroyed during World War II), syn. nov. (based on the protologue).
Syntypes
Angola, Huila, 12 May 1860, parasitic on Berlinia paniculata Benth. = Pseudoberlinia paniculata (Benth.) P.A.Duvign., F. M. J. Welwitsch 529, 529b (C, G).
Note
Tepals pink to brown, in 3 to 4 whorls each with 3-6 tepals. Male flowers with 1 or 2 ring(s) of ca. 15 pollen sacs, stamen filaments free from the central column (Fig. 6F), hair cushion at the basis of the inner tepals (Blarer et al. 2004[1]). Growing in branches of Julbernardia and Brachystegia, maybe also on Berlinia, Westia and Pseudoberlinia, in Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania, Angola and Malawi (Figs 2, 3).
