Biology:Angianthus
From HandWiki
Angianthus is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae.[1][2][3] All species of this genus are endemic to Australia.[4]
Taxonomy
The genus was first described by Johann Christoph Wendland in 1810, for the species Angianthus tomentosus.[1][2] The genus name derives from the Greek: angeion, a vessel or cup, and anthos, flower, and refers to the cup-like shape of the ring of broad pappus-scales.[5] Angianthus tomentosus, although originally the type species,[1] is now considered to be a synonym of Siloxerus tomentosus, but the genus name Angianthus is conserved against Siloxerus.[6][7]
