Showing Amyema
Amyema Tiegh. legitimate | sensu Barlow, B.A. in George, A.S. (ed.) (1984), Loranthaceae. Flora of Australia 22
  • In coining the generic name Amyema, Tieghem assigned it feminine gender. B.A.Barlow treated the genus as neuter, following traditional Greek usage, and adopted this gender in his many treatments of the genus (e.g. Austral. J. Bot. 14: 421-499 (1966), Fl. Australia 22: 91-122 (1984). Barlow subsequently (Blumea 36: 293-381 (1992)) accepted that the gender assigned by Tieghem should be adopted, and this is the position accepted here.
