Comments:
  • conserved (nom. cons.) against the heterotypic synonym (Shenzhen ICN 14.4 & App. III) Melanthium L., nom. rej.
  • Thunberg (Diss. Melanthio 1797) was the first to merge Veratrum and Melanthium, adopting Melanthium, so this name has priority if the two are synonymized without conservation of Veratrum
