FULL CIRCLE FOR CIRCANDRA

摘要

Circandra serrata (L.) N.E.BR, has a surprisingly thin history for a species already known to Linnaeus's predecessor, Jacob Dillenius. Dillenius published an illustration of it in 1732, based on a plant growing and flowering in the parish of Eltham in Kent. I doubt that the Eltham has been equally graced since then. Linnaeus named the species in 1753 in his Species Plantarum.
