Names in Urticaceae [11]

In 1851, Liebmann used the same name, Discocarpus, to refer to some plants in the Urticaceae. [12] Thus he created an illegitimate homonym, so his usage of the name had to be abandoned. Species names created in Urticaceae: [13]

  1. Discocarpus mexicanusLiebm. - Discocnide mexicana (Liebm.) Chew
  2. Discocarpus nicaraguensisLiebm. - Discocnide mexicana (Liebm.) Chew
