Lucuma kossmanniae, a new name for Pouteria kossmanniae (Sapotaceae, Chrysophylloideae)
Abstract
In light of the recent findings in Neotropical Chrysophylloideae (Sapotaceae), it can be understood that Pouteria kossmanniae is a member of Lucuma, not Pouteria, which is why we performed a new combination and increased the number of recognized species to 18.
