Hilger, H. H., Gottschling, M., Selvi, F., Bigazzi, M., Långström, E., Zippel, E., Diane, N. & Weigend, M.: The Euro+Med treatment of Boraginaceae in Willdenowia 34 — a response. — Willdenowia 35: 43–48. — ISSN 0511-9618; © 2005 BGBM Berlin-Dahlem. doi:10.3372/wi.35.35101 (available via http://dx.doi.org/)
The classification of B. Valdés proposed in Willdenowia 34 in 2004 is shown to be for practical purposes incomplete, incorrect, inconsistent and out of date. A revised list of genera and tribes of Boraginales (Boraginaceae s.l.) occurring in the region based on recent data is presented.
