Clibadium surinamense
Clibadium surinamense L.
Clibadium surinamense L., a species in the Asteraceae family, is native to regions in South America, particularly Colombia, with additional records in Brazil and Bolivia. It is found in various departments and ecological zones, including several natural parks and reserves. The species was first described in 1771 by Linnaeus, based on a manuscript account by Allemand from Surinam, although no physical specimens from Allemand were preserved. A neotype was later selected from Surinam to stabilize the nomenclature.
Description
Clibadium surinamense is a member of the Asteraceae family and is distributed across the Amazonas, Antioquia, Bolívar, and other regions in Colombia, as well as in Brazil and Bolivia. It is present in diverse ecological zones, including the Cordillera occidental, Cordillera central, and several protected areas such as Parque Nacional Natural Los Katíos and Parque Nacional Natural Utría. The species was first described by Linnaeus in 1771 based on a manuscript by Allemand, which detailed a plant referred to as Clibadium foetidum. Since no original material from Allemand was preserved, a neotype was designated from Surinam to serve as a reference for the species. This action was necessary to clarify the taxonomic status of the species following the absence of the original type material.
