Name
Pseudopegolettia thodei (Phillips) H. Rob., Skvarla & V.A. Funk comb. nov. – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Vernonia collina Schlechter, J. Bot. 1898. 374. 1898, nom. illeg., non Vernonia collina Gardn. 1846.
- Vernonia thodei Phillips, J. Bot., Lond. 74: 205. 1936, based on Vernonia collina Schlechter.
Distribution
Zambia, Transvaal (Smith 1971[1]).
Note
The specimen cited by Smith (1971)[1] as Vernonia nyassae Oliv. from Transvaal, is Pseudopegolettia thodei. The two species have generally similar habits, but they are totally different entities with basically different pollen.
It is evident from the description that Vernonia collina of Klatt, based on a Schlechter collection, is not the same as the Vernonia collina of Schlechter. See under unplaced species.
