Abstract

Lycium grandicalyx Joubert & Venter, a new species from Namibia is described. This species differs from other Lycium species by the enlarged and broadly urceolate calyx, which encloses the berry completely in the fruiting stage and by the presence of bicornate, stellate hairs. Florally L. grandicalyx most resembles L. campanulatum E. Mey., L. ferocissimum Miers, L. pilifolium C.H. Wr., L. prunus-spinosa Dun. and L. schizocalyx C.H. Wr. Lycium grandicalyx Joubert & Venter, ’n nuwe spesie van Namibië word beskryf. Hierdie spesie verskil van ander Lycium- spesies in die vergrote en wyd-kruikvormige kelk, wat die bessie heeltemal omsluit tydens die vrugstadium, en in die teenwoordigheid van tweehoringrige, stervormige hare. L. grandicalyx stem ten opsigte van blombou meeste met L. campanulatum E. Mey., L. ferocissimum Miers, L. pilifolium C.H. Wr., L. prunus-spinosa Dun. en L. schizocalyx C.H. Wr. ooreen.
