Abstract
Two new species of Brownanthus, B glareicola Klak and B fratemus Klak and one new species of Scopelogena, S. bruynsii Klak are described. S. gracilis L.Bolus is reduced to synonymy under S. verruculata (L.) L Bolus. Three new combinations are made: Antimima excedens (L.Bolus) Klak. Erepsia dunensis (Sond.) Klak and Hammeria meleagris (L.Bolus) Klak and full synonomy is given Lampranthus maximilianii (Schltr. & A.Berger) L Bolus is transferred back to Braunsia maximilianii (Schltr. & A Berger) Schwantes and the identity of Ruschia polita L Bolus is discussed. The taxonomic position of Mesembryanthemum purpureostylum L.Bolus is clarified.
