2.1.2. New name in Hypoestes
Merrill (1922) described a new Philippine species of Hypoestes Sol. ex R.Br. from Zamboanga. He considered it different from, yet perhaps close to Hypoestes subcapitata C.B.Clarke. He named this species Hypoestes axillaris Merr. because of its mainly axillary inflorescences, but this name is a later homonym of Hypoestes axillaris Benoist , which refers to a different species from Madagascar. A new name is therefore needed for the Philippine taxon.
