73. Caroxylon rabieanum (I.Verd.) Mucina View in CoL comb. nov.
Basionym:― Salsola rabieana I.Verd. View in CoL in Bothalia 6, 1: 218, fig. 3 (1951).
Type:― SOUTH AFRICA. Orange Free State [Free State Prov.]: Dist. Fauresmith, Driefontein, limestone in brak veld, 12 April 1945, Henrici 2885a (holotype PRE-0372169-0! ; isotype PRE-0372168-0!,)
‒ Salsola aphylla var. virescens Fenzl ex Drège View in CoL in Flora 2, Beigabe: 58, 59, 217 (1843), nom. nud. (Art. 38.1a of ICN).
Notes: ― Botschantzev (1974a: 608) considered Salsola rabieana to be an apparent hybrid between S. albida and S. glabrescens to which it is supposedly ‘connected by a continuous series of transitional forms’. This remark confirms the complexity facing the alpha-taxonomic revision of the genus Caroxylon .
