Click to collapse Notes Info

editorial
The protologue is usually cited from p. 27, or p. 27–30, but the name cannot be found on that page, which is part of an article on "Genres séparés des Rudistes de Lamarck". The name was found on p. 261, with a long description of the species following occupying the whole article. The table of contents lists the article from the pages cited in this databse. Perhaps there is a re-numbering issue that was not apparent.
editorial
"The epithet milii has been used frequently in horticultural literature and trade for a widely variable swarm of spiny cultivars generally designated as crown of thorns. The epithet milii is applied nearly always irrespective of any known details of the botanical background of the parental plants or merely based on badly informed guesses (Jankalski 2000)."
