“…Several authors followed Schreber in the use of the Ghinia name (Gmelin, 1791; Willdenow, 1797; Swartz, 1800; Standley, 1924; Britton & Wilson, 1925; Moldenke, 1941, 1942, León & Liogier, 1957; Moldenke, 1981a, b, c; Correl & Correl, 1982), even though Tamonea is the accepted and valid name for the Verbenaceae genus. Many other authors, such as Swartz (1788), Jussieu (1789), Persoon (1807), Schlechtendal & Chamisso (1830, 1831), Walpers (1845), Schauer (1847), Urban (1911), Gibson (1970), Troncoso (1974), Howard (1983), Zaruchi (1984), Martínez & Múlgura (2003) and Atkins (2004), used the correct name Tamonea for Verbenaceae.…”
