Cabobanthus is a genus of plants in the family Asteraceae, native to tropical Africa. Its species were formerly placed in the genus Vernonia . [2]
As of September 2020 [update] , Plants of the World Online recognises the following species: [1]
Asterales is an order of dicotyledonous flowering plants that includes the large family Asteraceae known for composite flowers made of florets, and ten families related to the Asteraceae. While asterids in general are characterized by fused petals, composite flowers consisting of many florets create the false appearance of separate petals.
Aster is a genus of perennial flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. Its circumscription has been narrowed, and it now encompasses around 170 species, all but one of which are restricted to Eurasia; many species formerly in Aster are now in other genera of the tribe Astereae. Aster amellus is the type species of the genus and the family Asteraceae.
Harold Ernest Robinson was an American botanist and entomologist.
Eupatorieae is a tribe of over 2000 species of plants in the family Asteraceae. Most of the species are native to tropical, subtropical, and warm temperate areas of the Americas, but some are found elsewhere. Well-known members are Stevia rebaudiana, a number of medicinal plants (Eupatorium), and a variety of late summer to autumn blooming garden flowers, including Ageratum (flossflower), Conoclinium (mistflower), and Liatris.
Edward William Nelson was an American naturalist and ethnologist. A collector of specimens and field naturalist of repute, he became a member of several expeditions to survey the fauna and flora. He was part of a team with Clinton Hart Merriam that took part in the Death Valley Expedition. He also explored the Yosemite Valley. A number of vertebrate species are named after him.
Cyanthillium is a genus of tropical plants in the ironweed tribe within the sunflower family.
Distephanus is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. It is described by American botanist Harold E. Robinson as having over 40 species and by David Mabberley as having only 34 species. These sources differ sharply in their description of the range of the genus. Robinson has it ranging throughout Africa and occurring also in India and China. Mabberley has it restricted to southeast Africa, Madagascar, and Mauritius.
Acritopappus is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae described as a genus in 1972.

Vicki Ann Funk was an American botanist and curator at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History, known for her work on members of the composite family (Asteraceae) including collecting plants in many parts of the world, as well as her synthetic work on phylogenetics and biogeography.
Quechualia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, native to South America. They can be distinguished from Vernonia by the presence of long hairs on the insides of the throats of their corollas.
Brenandendron is a genus of plants in the family Asteraceae, native to tropical Africa. The genus is named for the British botanist John Patrick Micklethwait Brenan and its species were formerly placed in the genus Vernonia.
