Abstract

Athenaea Sendtn. nom. cons. is re-established as the correct name for the taxon previously referred to as Aureliana Sendtn. (Withaninae, Solanaceae), which is a later homonym of Aureliana Boehm. (Araliaceae), and thus illegitimate. As a result, five new combinations transferring species from Aureliana Sendtn. to Athenaea are necessary and are made here: Athenaea angustifolia comb. nov., Athenaea fasciculata comb. nov., Athenaea sellowiana comb. nov., Athenaea tomentosa comb. nov., and Athenaea wettsteiniana comb. nov. We also provide lectotypifications for names not previously typified (Athenaea anonacea Sendtn., Athenaea cuspidata Witasek, Athenaea hirsuta Sendtn., Aureliana tomentosa Sendtn., Aureliana velutina var. obtusifolia Sendtn., Bassovia lucida var. pallida Dunal, Bassovia lucida var. pilosulum Dunal, Saracha brasiliensis Klotzsch, Withania picta var. parvifolia Dunal, Withania picta var. subnuda Dunal), an epitype for Aureliana tomentosa Sendtn. and a synoptic list of all currently recognized species of Athenaea, including geographic distributions and nomenclatural details.
