Berberis shenii is a shrub in the Berberidaceae described as a species in 1928. It is endemic to China, found in the provinces of Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, and Hunan. [2]
Berberis shenii was initially scientifically described and named Mahonia shenii by Woon-Young Chun (Huan-Yong Chen, 陈焕镛). [1] He named it in honor of Professor P.F. Shen of Sun Yatsen University in Canton (Guangzhou). [3] A paper published by Joseph Edward Laferrière in 1997 summarized the arguments for Mahonia being more properly classified as a synonym of Berberis renaming it Berberis shenii. As of 2023 this is the most common classification by botanists. [1] [4] [5]
Mahonia is a formerly accepted genus of approximately 70 species of shrubs or, rarely, small trees with evergreen leaves in the family Berberidaceae, native to eastern Asia, the Himalaya, North America, and Central America. They are closely related to the genus Berberis and as of 2023 the majority of botanical sources list it as a synonym for Berberis.
