- Title
(2421-2422) Proposals to conserve the names Forsteronia and Pinochia (Apocynaceae), the former with a conserved type.

- Abstract
The article reports that Forsteronia G. Mey. is a widespread Neotropical genus of 42 species, distributed from Mexico and the Antilles southward as far as northern Argentina. If the retention of Forsteronia in its current sense is accepted by conservation of F. spicata as type, the segregate genus Pinochia will lack a legitimate name. It seems only sensible to make it legitimate by conservation, once the cause of its illegitimacy is removed through the conservation of Forsteronia.
