title: TABLE 2 in Taxonomy and nomenclature of Kalanchoe beharensis (Crassulaceae subfam. Kalanchooideae), a variable, arborescent species from Madagascar, with reference to its horticultural derivatives

description: TABLE 2. Alphabetical list, arranged by Group, of cultivar names, some of which may not have been established under Brickell et al. (2016) but might serve as trade designations, in wide use in association with Kalanchoe beharensis. The numbering used in the first column coincides with the numbering used in the text. Author attributions of scientific plant names are not given in the Table, but can be found in the text. The information reflected in columns 2 to 4 is mostly, but not exclusively, based on information included in Shaw (2008: 33–79, Table 1). “ K.” = “ Kalanchoe ”.

2 Shaw (2008: 75) listed “‘Subnuda’” against species number 3, i.e., K. blossfeldiana (see Shaw 2008: 33). This was clearly a typographical error for species number 2, i.e., K. beharensis.
3 “Jacobsen 1974: 283” [presumably the 1974 edition of H. Jacobsen’s Lexicon of succulent plants] referenced by Shaw (2008: 75) was not seen in this study. However, Jacobsen (1977: 283), i.e., the revised and enlarged 2 nd edition, was seen.

5 Presumably the 1988 hardcopy catalogue of the Abbey Brook Cactus Nursery, Bakewell Road, Matlock, Derbyshire DE4 2QJ, United Kingdom (www.abbeybrookcacti.com). The catalogue was not seen during the present study.
6 “Graf (1978: 684)”, [presumably the 9 th edition of A.B. Graf’s Exotica] cited by Shaw (2008: 78), was not seen during the present study. However, the edition published two years later, Graf (1980), was seen, with the kalanchoes illustrated and discussed on pp. 682–689 and pp. 1637–1638, respectively. Kalanchoe beharensis ‘Viridis’ was included on p. 684 (photograph) and on p. 1637 (text) of Graf (1980).
