Abstract

Summary Three new Senecio species are described, S. fanshawei from Zambia, S. ngandae from Malawi and S. nyangani from Zimbabwe. A new combination is made under S. brachypodus and a taxon is added to the synonymy of this species; single taxa are added for the first time to the synonymy of S. coronatus and S. purpureus, and two taxa each are added for the first time to the synonymy of S. hochstetteri and S. triactinus.
