It is shown that doubts raised recently (Feddes Rep. 119: 622–624, 2008) about the validity of Ochetophila Poepp. ex Endl. as distinct from Discaria Hook. are based on unsound arguments. The distinctness of Ochetophila rests upon a solid cladistic analysis of the tribe Colletieae (Rhamnaceae) and adequately reflects the current knowledge of this group.
