Checklist of Bolivian Compositae - Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew

Moquinia macrocephala Rusby, Descr. New Sp. S. Amer. Pl. : 162 (1920). Type: ‗Unduavi, North Yungas,
Bolivia, 3,000 M., November, 1910. A shrub 3 or 4 M. high. (Buchtien, No. 3080.)‘ Holotype: US (1179267).
Aplopappus lucidulus S. F. Blake, Amer. J. Bot. 14(3): 114 (1927). Type: ‗BOLIVIA: Unduavi, North Yungas, alt.
3300 m., Nov. 1910, Buchtien 3080‘. ‗Type in the U.S. Nat. Herb., nos. 1, 179, 267.‘ [‗Nordyungas: Unduavi,
3300 m, Kletterstrauch 3–4 m, XI-1910, Buchtien 3080‘ – according to Cuatrecasas, 1970: 43] This citation, by
Blake, of the ‗numbers‘ is actually in error for 1179267, which is the holotype. Holotype: US (01179267).

November.
Note: Cuatrecasas (1970: 43) stated that his species was only known from the type, which is presumably the
same material that Rusby had used to described Moquinia macrocephala. However, Pruski (2005) indicated
that holotype of the Moquinia was in NY, and the holotype of the Haplopappus in US, with isotypes of each in
the other herbaria. I have been unable to track down the repsective isotypes since I believe that only the
unicate exists in US, which was the basis for both names.

Linosyris (Dolichogyne) mandonii Sch.Bip., Bull. Soc. Bot. France 12: 81 (1865), nom. nud. (based on Mandon
233)
Aplopappus soratensis S. F. Blake, Amer. J. Bot. 14(3): 109 (1927). Type: ‗BOLIVIA: In rocky places in the
subalpine and apline region near Sorata, between Nasacara and Lacatia, alt. 3400-3700 m., Aug.–Nov, 1860,
Mandon 233‘. Holotype: GH (9874); isotypes: GH (9875), K, NY (00179006), US (01440025 – fragment of K).
Bolivia (La Paz).
Amongst rocks, cliffs.
3400–3700 m.
August–November.
Note: ‗Bigelowia mandonii Benth. & Hook.f., Gen. Pl. 2(1): 255 (1873)‘ – although cited by Hall (1928: 357) and
others, no such combination was proposed in Genera Plantarum providing the specific epithet combined with
the generic name. The first time the combination is found is in Index Kewensis but is still based upon Schultz
Bipontinus‘ nom. nud. (via reference to Genera Plantarum), and can only be attributed to B. D. Jackson (q.v.).
In Genera Plantarum the name actually appears in a list of species of Linosyris as Linosyris mandonii Sch.Bip.,
which might possibly to be considered as a new name, provided by Bentham & Hooker, for Haplopappus
hypoleucus Turcz. The diagnostic characters provided by Bentham & Hooker are those distinguishing sect.
Diplostephioides, and nothing more. Linosyris mandonii Sch.Bip. also appeared in Linnaea 34(5): 534 (Feb. 1866)
as a nom. nud. Hall (1928: 357) was of the opinion that the appearance of the name ‗Linosyris mandoni‘ in
Genera Plantarum was its effective place of publication – which is clearly incorrect.
