KELLER, Héctor A  e  LIEDE-SCHUMANN, Sigrid. "The end of an enigma", new subtribe and nomenclatural novelties in Asclepiadeae (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae). Bonplandia [online]. 2017, vol.26, n.2, pp.133-136. ISSN 0524-0476.

A new name, Topea H. A. Keller, is proposed for the genus Aenigma H. A. Keller (Apocynaceae) because there is a preexisting phonetic homonym. In addition, based on molecular phylogenetic studies, the new, monogeneric subtribe Topeinae H. A. Keller & Liede, endemic to the southern cone of South America, is here described within the tribe Asclepiadeae.

Palavras-chave : Nomenclature; phylogeny; taxonomy; Topea; Topeinae.
