| description | All the names in <i>Paronychia</i> described from South America are investigated. Five names (<i>P. arbuscula</i>, <i>P. brasiliana</i> subsp. <i>brasiliana</i> var. <i>pubescens</i>, <i>P. coquimbensis</i>, <i>P. hieronymi</i>, and <i>P. mandoniana</i>) are lecto- or neotypified on specimens preserved at GOET, K, LP, and P. The typification of nine names, first proposed by Chaudhri in 1968 as the “holotype” are corrected according to Art. 9.10 of ICN. Three second-step typifications (Art. 9.17 of ICN) are proposed for <i>P. camphorosmoides</i>, <i>P. communis</i>, and <i>P. hartwegiana</i>. The following nomenclatural changes are proposed: <i>P. arequipensis comb. et stat. nov.</i> (basionym: <i>P. microphylla</i> subsp. <i>microphylla</i> var. <i>arequepensis</i>), <i>P. compacta nom. nov. pro P. andina</i> (Philippi non Gray; Art. 53.1 of ICN), <i>P. jujuyensis comb. et stat. nov.</i> (basionym: <i>P. hieronymi</i> subsp. <i>hieronymi</i> var. <i>jujuyensis</i>), <i>P. compacta</i> subsp. <i>boliviana comb. nov.</i> (basionym: <i>P. andina</i> subsp. <i>boliviana</i>), and <i>P. compacta</i> subsp. <i>purpurea comb. nov.</i> (basionym: <i>P. andina</i> subsp. <i>purpurea</i>). A new species (<i>P. glabra sp. nov.</i>) is proposed based on our examination of live plants and herbarium specimens. <i>P. johnstonii</i> subsp. <i>johnstonii</i> var. <i>scabrida</i> is synonymized (<i>syn. nov.</i>) with <i>P. johnstonii</i>. Finally, <i>P. argyrocoma</i> subsp. <i>argyrocoma</i> is excluded from South America since it was based on misidentified specimens (deposited at MO) of <i>P. andina</i> subsp. <i>andina</i>. A total of 30 species (43 taxa including subspecies, varieties, subvarieties, and forms) are recognized, highlighting that for some (<i>Paronychia chilensis</i>, <i>P. communis</i>, <i>P. setigera</i>) we provisionally accept Chaudhri’s infraspecific classification, since the high phenotypic variability of these taxa is quite complicated and further investigations need to solve their taxonomy. |
