Bossiaea, Platylobium, Fabaceae, Australia, Taxonomy, Nomenclature, TypificationAbstract
The genus Platylobium Sm. (Fabaceae, Faboideae, Bossiaeeae) is formally included in Bossiaea Vent. While Platylobium was published earlier, Bossiaea has been conserved over that name, giving Bossiaea priority when the two genera are combined. We here provide new combinations for nine species: Bossiaea alternifolia (F.Muell.) R.L.Barrett & P.H.Weston, Bossiaea formosa (Sm.) R.L.Barrett & P.H.Weston, B. infecunda (I.Thomps.) R.L.Barrett & P.H.Weston, B. montana (I.Thomps.) R.L.Barrett & P.H.Weston, B. obtusangula (Hook.) R.L.Barrett & P.H.Weston, B. parviflora (Sm.) R.L.Barrett & P.H.Weston, B. reflexa (I.Thomps.) R.L.Barrett & P.H.Weston, B. rotunda (I.Thomps.) R.L.Barrett & P.H.Weston, B. triangularis (R.Br.) R.L.Barrett & P.H.Weston; and one subspecies: B. montana subsp. prostrata (I.Thomps.) R.L.Barrett & P.H.Weston. We also provide a combined generic description for our enlarged concept of Bossiaea.
