Jeffreya palustris (O.Hoffm.) Wild |
In 1978, Cabrera[5] used the name Jeffreya to refer to a plant from Madagascar, rather different from the plant to which Wild had already applied the name four years earlier. This necessitated a renaming of Cabrera's species:
- Jeffreya decurrens (L.) Cabrera - Neojeffreya decurrens (L.) Cabrera
