Abstract

The taxonomic history and application of the name Aloe ×schoenlandii Baker (Asphodelaceae: Alooideae), a hybrid between Aloe maculata All. and Aloe striata Haw., is reviewed. It is shown that the name Aloe ×schimperi Tod., which predates the name Aloe ×schoenlandii by several decades, refers to the same hybrid and should be adopted. The name Aloe ×paxii is also discussed and its application resolved. The name Aloe ×schimperi is lectotypified.
