ABSTRACT: The new combination Krigia cespitosa (Raf.) KL Chambers var. gracilis, based on Apogon gracilis DC, is proposed, and a lectotypification of the basionym is given. A neotype is created for Serinia cespitosa Raf. The hexaploid hybrid Krigia× shinnersiana is described from the Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina, representing an allopolyploid of the cross Krigia biflora (Walter) SF Blake× Krigia montana (Michx.) Nutt.
