Abstract

Taxonomy and nomenclature of six Nervilia species occurring in the Flora Zambesiaca area are revised. Lectotypes or neotypes are selected for all relevant taxa from Africa. The new species N. gassneri is described and the new combination N. kotschyi var. purpurata is made. One widespread African species previously mostly known under the names N. humilis and N. reniformis is shown to be conspecific with the widespread Asian and Australien species N. crociformis.
