Galapagos Species Database

Taxon category: Accepted

F. Bungartz: several specimens confirmed at CDS, but many other identifications erroneous, e.g., a specimen in FH is based on a misidentification of Peltula omphaliza (FH 197404); also some taxonomic confusion: Psoroglaena cubensis auct. non Müll. Arg., fide Elix & McCarthy (1998) is synonymous with Flakea papillata.
