Dryopteris kilemensis (Kuhn) Kuntze View in CoL
First recorded — Pichi Sermolli (1985: 157).
Note — Kuhn (1868: 24) called his new species Aspidium kilmense and cited as collection “Kilma”. Kunze (1891: 813) placed it in Dryopteris as D. kilmensis (not “ kilemensis ” as Roux [2009: 122] states). In his checklist, Roux (2009: 122) listed the species as D. kilemensis . However, in his monograph Roux (2012: 63) again named it D. kilmensis , following Kuhn (1868).
Kuhn (1868: 24) and Roux (2012: 122) gave the type locality as “Kilma”. We have checked the holotype in B (B 20 0051628!), where the collectors Von der Decken & Kersten clearly wrote “Kilema ad radices montis Kilimandjaro ”. Therefore, the species name must be D. kilemensis .
