DIPLACUS BRANDEGEEI (PENNELL) NESOM (PHRYMACEAE) THE CORRECT NAMEFOR THE INSULAR ENDEMIC, IS NOT DIPLACUS LATIFOLIUS GRAY) NESOM (A. Guy Nesom L. 2925 Hartwood Drive Fort Worth, Texas 76109 [email protected] ABSTRACT Diplacus latifolius (A Gray) Nesom 2012 a later homonym of D. latifolius Nutt. 1838 and is replaced here by Diplacus brandegeei (Pennell) Nesom, comb. nov. The species a member of is is Diplacus sect. Cleisanthus and is endemic to islands off the coast of California and Mexico. In the recent taxonomic overview of Phrymaceae (Barker et al. 2012), one of the new combinations in the genus Diplacus was illegitimate, a later homonym. As noted by Dr. James now (A Nesom Zarucchi, "Diplacus latifolius Nuttall [1838] and Gray) G.L. [2012]." That error is ... remedied here with a new, legitimate-name-producing combination. Diplacus brandegeei (Pennell) Nesom, comb. nov. Mimulus brandegeei Pennell, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia 99: 170. 1947 (as "brandegei"). TYPE: USA. California. Santa Barbara CAS Co.: Santa Cruz Island, 1888, T.S. Brandegee s.n. (holotype: PH; isotypes: digital MO image!, GH, MTN, digital image!, PH, RS A, SD, UC). Diplacus latifolius (A Gray) Nesom, Phytoneuron 2012-39: 32. 2012, nom. illeg. (not Diplacm latifolius Nutt. 1838, see below). Mimulus latifolius A. Gray, Proc. Amer. Acad. Arts 1 1: 95. 1876.

Diplacus brandegeei known only from two of the Channel Islands of California (Santa is Catalina Island and Santa Cruz Island) and from Guadalupe Island (Baja California in adjacent member Mexico). It is a of Diplacus sect. Cleisanthus (Barker et al. 2012). Diplacus latifolius Nutt. (Ann. Hist. Nat. 1: 138. 1838) is a synonym of D. auranticus & member Nesom (Curtis) Jepson, a of'Diplacus sect.
