NOTES

 

This set of records is under review and subject to overnight changes.

Some doubts remain about the synonymy between P. minima L., P. pubescens auct. non L., P. angulata L. Two different species have been called P. pubescens by several different authorities, probably the same is true of P. minima. There is also doubt about the legitimate status of P. angulata.
