Abstract
►Phylogenetic and morphological studies support the inclusion in Bolandia of the discoid Senecio scapiflorus (L'Hér.) C.A.Sm. sensu lato►Senecio scapiflorus comprises three groups of populations differing in leaf morphology, flower colour, geographical distribution and ecology►These three entities are treated as species and transferred to the genus Bolandia as B. pinnatifida (Thunb.) J.C. Manning & Cron, B. glabrifolia (DC.) J.C.Manning & Cron and B. elongata (L.f.) J.C.Manning & Cron►Bolandia, which now includes five species, is emended to include discoid taxa with yellow, white or mauve florets
