Taxonomy

[edit]

Senecio leucanthemifolius was first described by Jean Louis Marie Poiret in 1789.[2][3] As of April 2024, the circumscription of the species varied. Euro+Med Plantbase took a wide view, whereas Plants of the World Online (PoWO) split it into a number of species. For example, Euro+Med Plantbase considered Senecio crassifolius Willd. to be a synonym,[1] while Plants of the World Online (PoWO) accepted it as a separate species.[4]

Subspecies

[edit]

As of April 2024, the accepted subspecies varied along with the circumscription of the species. Euro+Med Plantbase accepted five:[1]

  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. caucasicus (DC.) Greuter (also accepted by PoWO)
  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. cyrenaicus (E.A.Durand & Barratte) Greuter (=Senecio cyrenaicus (E.A.Durand & Barratte) Borzì in PoWO)
  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. leucanthemifolius
  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. mauritanicus (Pomel) Greuter(=Senecio fradinii Pomel in PoWO)
  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. vernalis (Waldst. & Kit.) Greuter (=Senecio vernalis Waldst. & Kit. in PoWO)

Plants of the World Online accepted two further subspecies:[3]

  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. cossyrensis (Lojac.) C.Brullo & Brullo
  • Senecio leucanthemifolius subsp. pectinatus (Guss.) C.Brullo & Brullo
