Chresta
DC., Prodr. 5: 85 (1836).
Chresta Vell., Fl.
Flum. Icones 8: tabs. 150 & 151 (1831), nom. inval.
Chresta DC. sect. Euchresta Gardner, London J. Bot. 1: 239
(1882), nom. inval.
Eremanthus Less.
sect. Chresta (DC.) Baker in Mart.,
Fl. Bras. 6(2): 166 (1873).
Lectotype (probably attributable to Robinson 1980):
Chresta sphaerocephala DC.
Note: At the time of publication of two plates with the names Chresta cordata and C. lanceolata Vellozo did not validly publish the generic name Chresta; it was not a description
generico-specifica, based on a single illustration with analysis. MacLeish
(1985: 465) was incorrect when providing the citation Fl. Flum. n. 325. 1829,
although correct in stating that Vellozos generic name was invalid.
