For those interested in South American Oxalis, the RHS Advisory Panel on Nomenclature & Taxonomy (APONAT) recently reviewed Lourteig's revision of the genus in Bradea 7 (2000) to see what name changes should be applied to the RHS Plant Finder. A number of name changes for cultivated taxa were noted and these can be found in the minutes of 14 June 2007 at http://rhs.org.uk/About/Committee/… The most relevant one is the correction to the priority of the name Oxalis perdicaria for O. lobata.
