Notes. – The single collection in the Cape herbarium in G-PREL is designated here as the lectotype. A fragment of this collection is in the G-DC herbarium. No matching specimen is present in UPS-THUNB. Pelargonium ficaria Willd. (WILLDENOW, 1800: 643) is a superfluous name. No specimen has been found in the Willdenow herbarium (B-W).
