Summary Hibiscus L. was first typified by Ph. Miller who restricted the genus to the single species Hibiscus malvaviscus L. In order to retain present usage it will be necessary to conserve Hibiscus L. with the type H. syriacus L. and to conserve Malvaviscus Cav. with the type Hibiscus malvaviscus L. as proposed in Taxon 15: 43. 1966.
