Abstract: | The genus Lophogyne is revised based on recent collections and examination of type material. The two nominal species, Lophogyne arculifera and Lophogyne helicandra, are herein placed in synonymy under the new combination Lophogyne lacunosa (previously published as Marathrum lacunosum), rendering the genus monotypic. A detailed description and a distribution map of the genus is presented. Lophogyne lacunosa is assigned to the EN B1ab (iii) category of the IUCN red list of threatened species. |
