[African Plant Database] [details] Contributed data: Notes Data only shown for fields conflicting with the consensus taxon record "In 1822, Porcellites was not accompanied by descriptive material, but was nevertheless validly published by reference to two earlier, effectively published generic descriptions, of Hypochaeris by Moench (Methodus: 549. 1794) and of Achyrophorus by Gaertner (Fruct. Sem. Pl. 2: 370. 1791). The type must be selected from the context of the validating description. Gaertner and Moench included a single named species: Hypochaeris radicata L., the (subsequently designated) type of Hypochaeris L. Therefore Porcellites is a legitimate name but a homotypic synonym of Hypochaeris L." (from Werner Greuter (B))., Nov 1822 [IPNI] Notes from Flann et al. 2010 Taxon 59: Type - Hypochaeris radicata L. (Achyrophorus radicatus (L.) Gaertn., P. radicata (L.) Cass. in Cuvier , Dict. Sci. Nat. 43: 42 1826) Notes: As first proposed in 1822, Porcellites was not accompanied by descriptive material, which is presumably why ING does not cite it from there. It was nevertheless validly published by reference to two earlier, effectively published generic descriptions, of Hypochaeris by Moench (Methodus: 549. 1794) and of Achyrophorus by Gaertner (Fruct. Sem. Pl. 2: 370. 1791). The type, in such a case, must be selected from the context of the validating description(s). It so happens that Gaertner and Moench included a single named species in the genus they described, the same in both: Hypochaeris radicata L.
