taxonomic synonym: Cyperus diphyllus Retz. legitimate
  • Comment: Mueller lists "Cyperus diphyllus = C. corynbosus ...". Since Cyperus diphyllus was previously accepted by Mueller on p. 125 of the Systematic Census (1882), Cyperus corymbosus F.Muell. is here treated as being a newly-accepted name in this Supplement.

  • Text: "The reference to S. corymbosus L. by Rottboell (1772) was tentative, as indicated by the question mark, and a year later he (Rottboell 1773) definitely excluded the synonymy. Thus the name Cyperus corymbosus is solely to be assigned to Rottboell."
