A taxonomic overview of Orchis sect. Robustocalcare (Orchidaceae).
Orchis patens has previously been considered to consist of three widely disjunct populations in northern Italy, Algeria/Tunisia and the Canary Islands. The last is already commonly treated as O. canariensis, but because the type of O. patens is from the Algerian populations, the name of the Italian taxon has been...Calevo, Jacopo ; Christenhusz, Maarten J.

Studies in Schoenoplectiella (Cyperaceae) in tropical West Africa.
Schoenoplectiella patentiglumis, a species described from Natal (South Africa) and previously known from Mozambique and Zimbabwe only, is reported for the first time from tropical West Africa (Benin, Burkina Faso and Nigeria) where it has been confused with S. articulata. Schoenoplectiella raynaliana, a rare species only known from the type...Scirpus, Tropical Africa, Schoenoplectus muricinux, Cyperaceae, Taxonomy, Monocots, and Schoenoplectus

Synonymies in Ananas (Bromeliaceae).
To clarify the last pineapple classification, which only recognizes the tetraploid crownless A. macrodontes and the diploid A. comosus, with three cultivated and two wild botanical varieties, we re-establish A. comosus var. microstachys and revise ancient synonymies, underlining misinterpretations and distinguishing horticultural names from botanical names whenever possible.Coppens d'Eeckenbrugge, Geo ; Govaerts, Rafaël

New combinations in Agave (Asparagaceae): A. amica, A. nanchititlensis, and A. quilae.
Phylogenetic studies of Agave Linnaeus (1753: 323) and related genera (Asparagaceae, Agavoideae) thus far published were based either on molecular (Bogler & Simpson 1996; Bogler et al. 2006; Good-Ávila et al. 2006; Scheinvar et al. 2017) or on morphological data (Hernández-Sandoval 1995; Tambutti in Eguiarte et al. 2006).

Nomenclatural and taxonomic notes on Carex lazarei nom. nov. (Cyperaceae).
Carex bulgarica (Domin) Lazare 1986 is a younger homonym of C. bulgarica Velen. 1889, the latter being validly published as an alternative name along with C. digitata var. bulgarica Velen. Therefore we publish here a replacement name, Carex lazarei, for the species previously called C. bulgarica by Lazare. Carex lazarei...Koopman, Jacob ; Niketić, Marjan ; Więcław, Helena ; Govaerts, Rafäel

Atlas of leaf surface micromorphology in Aloe L. (Asphodelaceae) from the Horn of Africa region.
The confident identification to species rank of fragmentary and sterile plant material is often challenged by the absence of diagnostic characters, which are present in intact specimens, reproductive parts, and plants in habitat. Here, we consider leaf surface micromorphology for the identification of the genus Aloe in the Horn of...
