Abstract

Pseudoselago Hilliard (Scrophulariaceae) accommodates 28 species differing from Selago L. sens. str. in a number of fundamental characters including those of bract and calyx (long-persistent, not falling after the cocci are shed), cocci (soft-walled, not hard-walled), seeds (compressed, not fusiform), and hairs on vegetative parts (thinwalled, not sculptured). It comprises species enumerated under Selago section Spurieae Rolfe (1901: 163–168) as well as S. heterophylla Rolfe (nom. illegit.; Pseudoselago similis Hilliard) and 16 newly described species. The genus is endemic to the SW Cape.
