Name

Kyphocarpa (Fenzl) Lopr. Bot. Jahrb. Syst. 27: 42. (1899), (as 'Cyphocarpa')

• name corrected to Kyphocarpa by Schinz, Nat. Pflanzenfam., ed. 2 [Engler & Prantl] 16c: 43. (1934)

• Type species: Cyphocarpa trichinioides (Fenzl) Lopr. (as 'trichinoides')

Note: : Girard & Kothe-Heinrich (2020) proposed to conserve the spelling Kyphocarpa. The Nomenclature Committee decided that Kyphocarpa (Fenzl) Lopr is the correct spelling. "Cyphocarpa cannot be attributed to Lopriore alone as a nomen novum, which makes the proposal unnecessary." (Applequist, 2023)
