Lectotype (designated here): Dapuri Drawing, no. 34, collection of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (reproduced in Noltie, 2002). Epitype (designated here): INDIA, Maharashtra, Satara, Panchgani (along the cliff above the Bazar), 16.11.1902, R.K. Bhide 1067 (K, K001325248!; iso BSI!). FigS. 1–3</p><p>Erect to decumbent, perennial, succulent, green to olive (turning chestnut) at maturity, tufted herb. Stems 15 to 60 cm tall, jointed, glabrous, internodes and nodes distinct. Leaves caducous (fallen by fruiting stage), decussate, proximal leaves subsessile, distal sessile; lamina ovate to lanceolate, or oblanceolate, 1–10 × 0.5–4 cm, succulent, reduplicate, or often conduplicate, glabrous, olive to khaki or peach to terracotta, base cuneate to attenuate, margins usually crenate, distal leaves crenate to dentate to entire, apex acute to obtuse. Inflorescence terminal or supra-axillary of 3–6 compound cymes; cymes 2–4-flowered, 4–5(–7) cm long; peduncles 0.2–1.5 cm long, glandular hairy, olive to vinaceous, bracteate; bracts fleshy, supra-axillary, lanceolate to falcate, c. 0.2 × 0.5 cm, vinaceous, glandular hairy; bracteoles similar to bracts, occasionally subulate, occasionally adhering to small, underdeveloped flowers. Flowers erect, pedicellate; pedicels 0.5–0.7(–1) cm long, glandular hairy, olive to vinaceous, buds obpyriform to pandurate. Calyx lobes free (fused inconspicuously at base), lanceolate, equal, c. 0.6 × 0.2 cm, apex acuminate, usually outwardly curved, densely glandular hairy, pink to fawn or olive. Corolla 1.7–2 cm long, densely to sparsely glandular hairy without, sparsely hairy within (at least at lobes); tube obpyriform, 1.2–1.5 cm long, angular-fluted, streaked with green, pink and white; lobes white, spreading, lanceolate, c. 0.5 × 0.3 cm, acuminate to caudate. Stamens 8, 2-rowed, slightly obdiplostemonous, the longer antipetalous, 1.2– 1.6 cm long, included in corolla tube, the shorter between the lobes, 0.8–1.2 cm long; filaments adherent to the corolla tube, free at 1/3 part, filiform, 0.3–0.5 cm; anthers ellipsoid, basifixed, lemon, inconspicuously two lobed. Nectar scales linear, 0.3–0.4 cm, usually bifid, attached at ovary base. Pistils 4, obclavate, c. 0.8 cm long; ovary narrowly ovoid, green, c. 0.4 cm long; style conspicuous, c. 0.3 cm, green to white, glabrous; stigma simple. Follicles narrowly ellipsoid, c. 0.7 cm long, glabrous, acrocidally dehiscent, fuscous, covered with the persistent, glandular, khaki corolla tube and calyx. Seeds numerous, ellipsoid, c. 1 × 1 mm, carunculate, testasulcate, fuscous to khaki.</p><p>Flowering &amp; fruiting: Flowering starts in October, peaks in December, and is followed by fruiting until February.</p><p>Habitat &amp; distribution: Grows in rock crevices and along the edges of vertical cliffs of basalt rocky plateaus fully exposed to the sun; also found in rocky terrain on hilly slopes; between 700 and 1200 m above sea level. Kalanchoe olivacea is endemic to the Western Ghats: Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. The collections from Kerala: Palakad and Idukki districts (Sasidharan, 1999, 2002) and Tamil Nadu: Anamalai, Attakatti Hills and Coimbatore (Gamble, 1919; Singh et al., 2011), and Dindigul (Soosairaj et al., 2016) represent the southern most distribution of K. olivacea . However, its occurrence in Tirunelveli district (Manickam et al., 2008a, 2008b) is doubtful — the illustration shows a glabrous inflorescence and flowers and the plant is therefore more likely to be referred to Kalanchoe floribunda var. glabra C.B.Clarke or K. bhidei .</p><p>Conservation status: The species might possibly occur elsewhere in Peninsular India, but on the data presently available, with a calculated area of occupancy of 20,000 km 2, and extent of occurrence of 34,645.170 km 2 in GEOCAT (Bachman et al., 2011), we evaluate the conservation status of K. olivacea as Least Concern (LC). No particular threats have been observed in the present studies.</p><p>Specimens examined: INDIA, Karnataka, Belgaum district, North of the Toorquary stage bungalow, s.d., Ritchie 330 [cited under K. brasiliensis by C.B.

Besides its similarity to K. bhidei (Table 1), it also shares some characters, including glandular hairs, with K. laciniata, but that species can be differentiated by its pinnately dissected leaves and yellow flowers.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/793487BFFFF4FFD4981147758FE107DB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

FigS. 4–6</p><p>Erect to decumbent perennial herbs, green to peach-tawny, solitary or sometimes tufted. Stems 30–100 cm tall, usually simple, occasionally branched, jointed, internodes lax, nodes cicatricose, peach-tawny, glabrous. Leaves caducous (stems leafless at fruiting), decussate, subsessile; lamina ovate to elliptic or oblanceolate, 2–12 × 2–5 cm, succulent, the proximal reduplicate, the distal conduplicate, glabrous, green to peach-tawny, base cuneate to attenuate margin crenate, distal leaves dentate to entire, apex rounded to obtuse in proximal leaves, acute in distal leaves. Inflorescence widely spreading, terminal and axillary, of many compound cymes; cymes 3–6-flowered, 5–9 cm long; peduncle 2–7 cm long, glabrous, stramineous; bracts fleshy, supra-axillary, subulate to falcate c. 0.5 × 0.2 cm, glabrous, peach to coral; bracteoles similar to bracts, occasionally adhering to small, underdeveloped flowers. Flowers erect, pedicellate; pedicels 0.3–0.7 cm long, glabrous, buds obclavate, characteristic lustrous, angular-fluted. Calyx lobes free, narrowly ovate or trigonous, equal, c. 0.4 × 0.1 cm, apex acuminate, glabrous, citrine to terracotta. Corolla 1.5–1.8 cm long, glabrous, obclavate with spreading corolla lobes; tube lustrous, distinctly angular-fluted, citrine to white; lobes white, spreading, narrowly ovate to lanceolate, c. 0.5 × 0.2 cm, apex acute to acuminate. Stamens 8, distinctly obdiplostemonous, the longer antipetalous, c. 1 cm, exserted from corolla throat, the shorter between the corolla lobes, c. 0.8 mm; filaments adherent to corolla tube, upper third free, filiform, 0.3–0.6 cm; anthers ellipsoid, basifixed, lemon, inconspicuously two-lobed. Nectar scales linear to ensiform, c. 0.4 cm long, attached at ovary base. Pistils 4 (more laxly disposed than in K. olivacea), narrowly clavate, c. 1 cm long; ovary narrowly ovoid, c. 0.8 cm long, lemon, sprinkled with brick red; style gradually tapered from ovary, inconspicuous; stigma simple. Follicles narrowly ellipsoid, c. 1 cm long, glabrous, acrocidally dehiscent, fuscous-fawn, covered with persistent papery, ivory corolla tube and calyx. Seeds are numerous, ellipsoid, c. 1 × 1 mm, carunculate, testasulcate, fuscous to khaki.</p><p>Flowering &amp; fruiting: As for K. olivacea .</p><p>Habitat &amp; distribution: Grows fully exposed to sun in open places, in loose, rocky ‘moorum’ (a soil type, comprised of small pieces of disintegrated rock or shale); on hilly slopes among grasses between 500 and 1200 m above sea level. Endemic to peninsular India: Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu (Gamble, 1919), and Andhra Pradesh (Chorghe et al., 2017).</p><p>Conservation status: Anthropogenic activities, especially road widening, have already led to the destruction of populations in a few of the localities where authors have previously observed K. bhidei . The other major threat comes from the native butterfly Talicada nyseus (Red Perriot), which completes its lifecycle entirely on members of the genus Kalanchoe (Singh, 2005) and has been observed feeding on K. bhidei . As K. bhidei is slow growing and its propagation, both sexual and vegetative, is limited, an infestation by Red Perriot is apparently causing damage to the sparse populations of this plant in their natural habitat. These observations point to a greater need for efforts towards the conservation of this species. With a calculated area of occupancy of 16,000 km 2, and extent of occurrence of 122,100.774 km 2 in GEOCAT (Bachman et al., 2011), its current conservation status is evaluated as Least Concern (LC).</p><p>Specimens examined: INDIA, Karnataka, Hassan district, Belavathalli state forest, 19.12.1968, C.

K. cherukondensis Subba Rao &amp; Kumari (1978) is an apparently intermediate species between K. olivacea and K. bhidei, described based on a glabrous calyx and glandular corolla lobes. Kalanchoe (including Bryophyllum) is a relatively large genus, most diverse in Tropical Africa and Madagascar with 144 species currently recognized (Mabberley, 2017). The Indian subcontinent has nine species (Singh et al., 2011) of which six are introduced and naturalized, while three are endemic and poorly documented. As no recent, complete monograph is available for the genus Kalanchoe, reliable species determination in the genus is confused and greatly in need of a revision (Descoings, 2003).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/793487BFFFFDFFDB9B98476D8926031A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
