Checklist of Bolivian Compositae - Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew

Pentacalia marinii (Cabrera) Cuatrec., Phytologia 49(3): 248 (1981). Note: although not citing an exact
basionym page, the page range included the whole of Cabrera‘s protologue (pp. 590–593) to Senecio marinii.
This is perfectly acceptable under the present Code.
?*Gynoxys discolor Rusby, Bull. New York Bot. Gard. 4(14): 398 (1907). Type: [Bolivia:] ‗([Bang] No. 2280.)‘
Holotype: NY (00178798); isotypes: GH (8583), K, MO, NY (00178799), US (00325973).
Senecio marinii Cabrera, Darwiniana 10: 590 (1954). Type: ‗PERÚ. Dep. Cuzco, Prov. Convención, Amaybamba,
1800 m s.m., leg. F. Marín 1789, X-1949‘. Holotype: LP. Note: in his observations Cabrera said that he would
‗probably‘ have to refer Gynoxys discolor Rusby to this species, but noted that the florets in one isotype were
too poorly developed to allow proper comparison.
Bolivia (?), Peru.

Pentacalia medullosa (Sch.Bip. ex Greenm.) Cuatrec., Phytologia 49(3): 256 (1981) = Dendrophorbium

Pentacalia miguelii (Cuatrec.) Cuatrec., Phytologia 49(3): 248 (1981).
*Senecio miguelii Cuatrec., Fieldiana, Bot. 27(2): 54 (1951). Type: ‗Bolivia, collected Miguel Bang 2039‘.
Syntypes: ‗F, US‘. [2 duplicates in US (00033032 & 01418788) marked as ‗isotype‘]; isotypes: C, K, LD, MO,
NY (250299 & 259300). Lectotype (effectively selected by Cabrera, 1985: 97, as holotype): Bang 2039, F.

Pentacalia oronocensis (DC.) Cuatrec., Phytologia 49(3): 248 (1981).
*Senecio oronocensis DC., Prodr. 6: 423 (1838). Type: [Bolivia: - see note] ‗Lin Amer. australis montibus
Oronocensibus legit cl. Haenke. ... (v.s. in h. Haenke à cl. de Sternberg miss.)‘. Holotype: PR. Note: Cabrera
(1954: 595) discussed the probable country of origin of Haenke‘s material and suggested that it was likely
to have been Bolivia (Dept. Oruro) as Haenke did not collect in Venezuela. Cabrera (1985: 103) indicated
that the holotype was in P, which is highly unlikely.
