Abstract

We provide here a new combination, Ichthyothere quinquenervia, based on Vellozo’s name Terrentia quinquenervis (Asteraceae, Millerieae). This species was formerly known under the name Ichthyothere integrifolia, and can be recognized by being an herbaceous plant with a terminal cymose inflorescence usually with three heads, and an involucre with three or four inner phyllaries. We also designate a lectotype for Terrentia quinquenervia and for some of its synonyms.

Resumo

Apresentamos aqui uma nova combinação, Ichthyothere quinquenervia, baseada no nome de Vellozo Terrentia quinquenervis (Asteraceae, Millerieae). Essa espécie era conhecida anteriormente como Ichthyothere integrifolia e pode ser reconhecida por ser uma planta herbácea, com inflorescência terminal, cimosa, geralmente com três capítulos e invólucro com três a quatro brácteas involucrais internas. Designamos também um lectótipo para Terrentia quinquenervia, e para alguns de seus sinônimos.
