Notes

Mottram & Hoxey (2020) have recently pointed out that Rhipsalis parasitica (L.) Haw. (≡ Cactus parasiticus L.) has priority over Rhipsalis baccifera (Sol. ex J.S.Muell.) Stearn. However, Rhipsalis parasitica has hitherto never been in use, while Rhipsalis baccifera is a well-established name that has been very frequently used throughout the literature. Therefore, Rhipsalis baccifera / Cassyta baccifera Sol. ex J.S.Muell. is proposed for conservation against Cactus parasiticus (Taylor & Zappi 2020).A
