Chaetanthera multiflora Humb. & Bonpl., Pl. Aequinoct. 2: 168, pl. 135 (1809) = Perezia multiflora (Humb. &
Bonpl.) Less.
Chaetanthera perpusilla (Wedd.) Anderb. & S. E. Freire, Taxon 39(3): 431 (1990).
*Luciliopsis perpusilla Wedd., Chloris Andina 1: 160 (1856). Types: ‗Hab. BOLIVIE: pelouses rases et un peu
arides de la Lancha!, dans la partie supérieure du ravine de Chuquiaguillo, aux environs de La Paz
(Wedd.).‘ Syntypes: P. Note: Anderberg & Freire (1990: 431) considered that the single Weddell collection
(from 1851) in P was the holotype, although I consider the use of the shriek, or exclamation mark,
significant in the middle of Weddell‘s protologue habitat sentence.
Lucilia perpusilla Wedd., Chloris Andina 1: Pl. 26 (see also p. 160) (1855). Type: the same as Luciliopsis
perpusilla Wedd.
Note: Luciliopsis perpusilla Wedd. and Lucilia perpusilla Wedd. are taken as ‗alternative names‘ (ICBN 2006,
Art. 34.2) since they were published contemporaneously in the same work, with the same type – one as a
description, the other as a plate with diagnostic dissections. Anderberg & Freire (1990: 431) were incorrect in
stating that Lucilia perpusilla Wedd. was ‗pro syn., nom. illeg.‘.
