Diplacus brandegeei (Pennell) G.L.Nesom (2012:1)
Santa Cruz Island monkeyflower
Taxonomy & Nomenclature
Synonyms: Mimulus brandegei Pennell in Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia 99: 170 (1947) (protonym but not basionym; used by Pennell, 1947; Smith & York, 1984:3) Mimulus brandegeei Pennell in Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia 99: 170 (1947) (basionym); Mimulus latifolius A.Gray in Proc. Amer. Acad. Arts 11: 95 (1876); Eunanus latifolius (A.Gray) Greene in Bull. Calif. Acad. Sci. 1(3): 99 (1885); Diplacus latifolius (A.Gray) G.L.Nesom in Phytoneuron 2012-39: 32 (2012), nom. illeg.
Mimulus brandegeei has been considered a synonym of M. latifolius by (Hickman, 1993; Baldwin et al., 2012; Rejmánek, 2018; Humphreys et al., 2019), however the warranted transfer of M. latifolius to Diplacus (Barker et al., 2012) accidentally resulted in the junior homonym D. latifolius (A. Gray) Nesom (2012) non D. latifolius Nutt. 1838. This was remedied by Nesom (2012) who elected to formally transfer the heterotypic synonym M. brandegeei to Diplacus as it was an available name.
