Note
The older De Candolle name has been placed rather consistently in synonymy, but not adopted. It is only comparatively recently that the combination was occuppied in Vernonia, as Vernonia tenella D.Nash, Fieldiana, Bot. 36: 74. 1974 = Lepidaploa tenella (D.Nash) H. Rob. The epithet tenella still has priority in almost all other genera. The DeCandolle specimen is known in this study primarily from synonymy, description, and on the basis of microfiche (IDC DeCandolle Herbarium 197: III: 8).
