• Comment: Jones cites the authorship of this designation as "M. Clements & D.Jones" and states that it "replaces D. speciosum var. hillii". However, there is no full and direct reference to the place of publication of the name intended to be the replaced synonym as required by ICN Art. 41.5 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
