Biology:Vickianthus
From HandWiki
Vickianthus is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. It includes ten species native to Mexico.[1]
The species now included in Vickianthus were formerly placed in the genera Vernonia and Vernonanthura. In 2023 Harold E. Robinson et al. organized them into a new genus based in a comprehensive phylogenetic study of the tribe Vernonieae. The genus is named after the botanist, curator, and plant collector Vicki Funk (1947–2019).[2]
