Litanthus stenocarpus (J.C.Manning & Deacon) Mart. View in CoL -Azorín, M.B.Crespo, M.Pinter & Wetschnig comb. nov.
≡ Drimia stenocarpa J.C.Manning & Deacon in Manning et al. (2014: 99). Type:— SOUTH AFRICA. Western Cape: 3118 (Vanrhynsdorp), Papendorp, 25 mi [40 km] from Vredendal , (– CA), 17 March 1971, H. Hall 3921 (holotype NBG; isotype PRE) .
Drimia stenocarpa View in CoL clearly belongs to Litanthus Harvey (1844: 314) View in CoL based on the 1(2)-flowered inflorescence terminated by a pair of subopposite bracts subtending a distinctive, cylindrical, pendulous flower with a well-developed perigone tube (at least twice as long as the tepal lobes) on and the prolongation of the anther connective into a small, translucent, membranous flap (cf. Manning et al. 2014). This placement is corroborated by the title of the latter article “A review of the Litanthus View in CoL group of Drimia Jacq. View in CoL ” Therefore, a new combination is needed to accommodate this new species in Litanthus View in CoL .
