Lacistema piptocarpha subsp. oblongae (authority?)


Protologue - the Holotype description

This name is only located on a herbarium specimens held at MBM.

It appears that two names have accidentally been joined together Lacistema and Piptocarpha subsp. oblongae (synonym of Piptocarpha oblonga?) - a member of the Asteraceae family. Is this the case?
