28526. Tritoma tuckii (Baker) Skeels. 



{Kniphofia tuckii Baker, Gard. Chron., ser. 3, vol. 13, p. 68, 1893.) 

 The generic name Kniphofia was applied by Moench in 1794 (Meth., p. 632) to 

 Aletris uvaria L., a species belonging to the same genus as the two given above, 

 but Kniphofia had been published by Scopoli in 1777 (Introd., p. 327) as a 

 generic name for Terminalia catappa L., and was therefore invalid as a desig- 

 nation for the other and later genus. 



The next earliest name available for this genus is Tritoma, which was pub- 

 lished by Ker-Gawler in 1804 (Botanical Magazine, vol. 20, pi. 744), based on 

 Tritoma sarmentosa (Andrews) Skeels {Aletris sarmentosa Andrews), a South 

 African species belonging to the same genus as the two listed above. These 

 species are therefore recognized under the name gi^'en to the genus by Ker- 

 Gawler, a name perhaps more frequently applied to them in horticultural liter- 

 ature than Kniphofia. 



These plants are both indigenous to Cape Colony, Tritoma northiae occurring 

 near Grahamstown, in the Albany division of the coast region, and Tritoma 

 tucHi in the .Colesberg division of the central region.
