Previous entry: Carpothamnion gunnianum

* Carpothamnion molle (Wollaston) P. Silva, comb. nov.

Thamnocarpus mollis Wollaston, 1992: 143–145, figs. 17–22 (type locality: off Mtentu River, Transkei, South Africa).

Carpothamnion molle (Wollaston) P. Silva.

INDIAN OCEAN DISTRIBUTION: South Africa, Tanzania.

Note: Wollaston (l.c.) erroneously assumed that the generic name Thamnocarpus Harvey had been conserved and thus did not assign her new species to Carpothamnion.

Addendum: Carpothamnion molle (Wollaston) P. Silva was validated in Silva, Basson, & Moe (University of California Publications in Botany 79: 387. 1996).
