Ξ Spiloxene linearis (Andrews) Garside (1936: 268) Bas. View in CoL :— Hypoxis linearis Andrews (1801 View in CoL : t. 171) Ξ Hypoxis stellata var. linearis (Andrews) Baker (1878: 101) View in CoL Ξ Ianthe

linearis (Andrews) Salisb. ex Williams (1901: 292) View in CoL . Type (lectotype designated here):—(illustration in) Andrews

(1801: t.171)

Typification: —The colour plate, painted from a plant grown in Hibbert’s living collection at Clapham, is designated as the lectotype since it clearly shows the flower’s colour, an important character given in the protologue. A dried voucher specimen of this plant is not known.

Note:—Although Spiloxene linearis was regarded as part of the S. serrata ( Thunberg 1779: 29) Garside (1936: 268) complex in Goldblatt & Manning (2000: 110), the name has never been formally placed into synonymy with S. serrata . Currently it is recognized as a highly localized, Vulnerable species in the Red List of South African plants ( Raimondo et al. 2009: 125).
