Jalantzia is a genus of flowering plants in the aster tribe Astereae within the sunflower family Asteraceae. It was previously known as Vernoniopsis Humbert,[2] an illegitimate name.[1] Its species are native to Madagascar.
Taxonomy[edit]
The genus name Vernoniopsis was first used by Per Karl Hjalmar Dusén in 1921.[3] Dusén described one species, Vernoniopsis crassipes, from Brazil, which has since been synonymized with Vernonia plantaginifolia (as of May 2024[update] treated as either Pycnocephalum plantaginifolium or Chresta plantaginifolia). Dusén's Vernoniopsis is placed in tribe Vernonieae.[4] In 1955, Jean-Henri Humbert used the same name for a new genus,[5] in which he placed a species from Madagascar originally described as Vernonia caudata.[6] Humbert's genus name, being a later homonym, is illegitimate.[5] In 2024, the replacement name Jalantzia was published for Vernoniopsis Humbert.[1] The genus is placed in the tribe Astereae.[4]
Species[edit]
As of May 2024[update], two species are accepted, both native to Madagascar.[4]
