14c. Clerodendrum johnstonii var. marsabitense ( Verdcourt 1992: 118) Meerts View in CoL , comb. et stat. nov.
Basionym: Clerodendrum johnstonii subsp. marsabitense Verdc. View in CoL ( Verdcourt 1992, Fl. Trop. East Africa, Verbenaceae: 118). Type:— KENYA. Northern frontier Province, Marsabit, Gillett 15100 (holotype: K000333102, iso-: BR0000008715524!).
Clerodendrum johnstonii is variable for indumentum of lower surface of lamina, and Verdcourt (1992) treated that variation at subspecies level. However, leaf indumentum is not correlated to other traits, and a varietal rank seems more appropriate.
Distribution in Central Africa:— Not present (but see note under var. rubropunctatum ).
Distribution elsewhere:— Kenya.
Habitat:—Same as type variety.
