TL;DR: Two subgenera of Combretum Loefl.
Abstract: Two subgenera of Combretum Loefl. occur in the Flora of southern Africa ( FSA ) region. Previous sectional classifications were assessed in view of molecular evidence and accordingly modified. Ten sections in subgen. Combretum , 25 species and eight subspecies are recognized. Subgen. Cacoucia (Aubl.) Exell & Stace comprises four sections and seven species. C. engleri Schinz, C. paniculatum Vent. and C. tenuipes Engl. & Diels are reinstated as distinct species separate from C. schumannii Engl., C. microphyllum Klotzsch and C. padoides Engl. & Diels, respectively. C. schumannii occurs outside the FSA region. Records of C. adenogonium Steud. ex A.Rich., C. platypetalum Welw. ex M.A.Lawson subsp. oatesii (Rolfe) Exell and subsp. baumii (Engl. & Gilg) Exell in Botswana are doubtful. C. celastroides Welw. ex M.A.Lawson subsp. orientale Exell is elevated to species level as C. patelliforme Engl. & Diels. C. grandifolium F.Hoffm. is reduced to C. psidioides Welw. subsp. grandifolium (F.Hoffm.) Jordaan. Twenty-six names are lectotypified. The type, a full synonymy, other nomenclatural and taxonomic information, the full distribution range and a distribution map are provided for each taxon. Selected specimens examined are given for poorly known species. Keys to subgenera, sections and species are provided.

TL;DR: A list of species and synonyms is presented for the African Hypoxis L., with an abbreviated reference to the original publication of a species is included.
Abstract: A list of species and synonyms is presented for the African Hypoxis L. An abbreviated reference to the original publication of a species is included in the list. Distribution of taxa is indicated by the country in which they occur. A list of synonyms with accepted or suggested names and the reference to change in status of a taxon is provided. Subsequent publications on the treatment of a taxon are given to denote congruous and differing resolution of taxa by authorities.
