Comments:
  • • A. Richard did not treat this taxon at subspecies rank
  • • an incorrect, superfluous name (Shenzhen ICN Art. 52.4), although not illegitimate, as van der Zon should have adopted the earliest available epithet at the rank of subspecies, that of Pennisetum chudeaui subsp. chudeaui, which was considered synonymous
Name Verified on: 12-Apr-1996 by ARS Systematic Botanists.
Accessions: 0 (0 active, 0 available) in National Plant Germplasm System
