A revision of Echeveria pringlei var. parva was made based on morphological and biogeographical comparisons. The results show that this taxon should be raised to the species level and that it belongs to E. ser. Nudae. Since the epithet parva is unavailable for use due to the existence of E. parva, E. flammigera is proposed as a new replacement name. An updated description of the taxon is provided, as well as a distribution map.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
