Taxonomic notes in Verbenaceae of the Brazilian Flora

ABSTRACT

The taxonomic identity of Lantana glaziovii Moldenke and Lippia nana Schauer is revised. These taxa have been accepted as synonyms of Lippia grandiflora Mart. & Schauer and Lippia pumila Cham., respectively. After a detailed analysis of protologues, herbarium collections, and relevant literature, Lantana glaziovii and Lippia nana are reestablished and accepted here as autonomous species. In addition, a lectotype is designated for Lippia nana.

Keywords:
