Abstract

Lantana and Lippia are two large and taxonomically complicated genera of Verbenaceae. During studies of these genera for the “Flora do Brasil 2020” project some taxonomic problems were identified. Here, we propose the reestablishment of the species Lippia subracemosa, nine new synonyms and three lectotypes for Lippia jangadensis, Lippia thymoides, and Lippia vernonioides, the last one also with the designation of an epitype.
