Abstract
âºPhylogenetic and morphological studies support the inclusion in Bolandia of the discoid Senecio scapiflorus (L'Hér.) C.A.Sm. sensu latoâºSenecio scapiflorus comprises three groups of populations differing in leaf morphology, flower colour, geographical distribution and ecologyâºThese 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 & CronâºBolandia, which now includes five species, is emended to include discoid taxa with yellow, white or mauve florets
