Species of flowering plant of the St. John's wort family
Hypericum collenetteae is a species of flowering plant of the St. John's wort family (Hypericaceae) that is found in Saudi Arabia.[1][2]
Taxonomy
Hypericum collenetteae was first described by Norman Robson in 1993. Robson spelt the specific epithet collenettiae. This is corrected to collenetteae in the International Plant Names Index entry.[3] According to the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants, Article 60.8, a connecting i is not used in epithets formed from personal names ending with a vowel.[4] Iris Sheila Collenette is noted for her work on the botany of Saudi Arabia,[5][6] and collected the holotype of this species.[2]
