Taxonomy

Retama rhodorhizoides was first described by Philip Barker-Webb and Sabin Berthelot in a work dated to 1836–1850 that was initially published in parts. An illustration of the species, first published in 1837, was labelled Genista rhodorhizoides.[1][4] When the authors published a Latin description in 1842, they transferred the species to Retama.[1][5]

The species is included in Retama monosperma by some sources,[6] and, according to the African Plants Database, has been incorrectly identified as Retama raetam by others.[7] Retama rhodorhizoides is restricted to the Canary Islands.[3][2]
