Bolivia (La Paz, Santa Cruz). Although listed by Robinson (1920: 63) and Foster (1958: 209), under Eupatorium
solidagionoides, King & Robinson (1987) did not list this species from Bolivia, and later (Robinson 2008)
suggested it was common in ‗Mexico and Central America south to N Peru and east to N Venezuela, [and
the] Galápagos Islands‘. Recent collections, Dematteis et al. 2227 & 2229, from Santa Cruz support its inclusion
in Bolivia.

Koanophyllon stipulifera (Rusby) R. M. King & H. Rob., Phytologia 22(3): 151 (1971).
*Eupatorium stipuliferum Rusby, Mem. Torrey Bot. Club 4(3): 210 (1895). Types: [Bolivia:] ‗[Yungas] [Bang]
254. Distributed as ―Eupatorium Guadalupense?‖ is EUPATORIUM STIPULIFERUM sp. n. … = Matthews’ 1369,
and Spruce’s 3914.‘ Isosyntype: Bang 254, US (01401096).
Argentina, Bolivia (La Paz).
Note: Foster (1958: 209) listed this species, under the synonym of E. stipuliferum, but equated this with E.
solidaginoides (now Koanophyllon solidaginoides) which was not recorded by King & Robinson (1987: 318) from
Bolivia. Ariza Espinar (1994: 51) considered K. stipulifera a synonym of K. solidaginoides.
