Flowering Plants and Gymnosperms of Peru (1993) as a synonym of Chucoa, though both names were published in the same year and date priority has not been conclusively established. Weberbaueriella has not appeared in any other modem literature. Although annotations of the types sug gest that Dillon was unsure when he synonymised the names, it now seems certain that Chucoa Cabrera, Bol. Soc. Argentina Bot. 6(1): 40 (November 1955) is taxonomically identical, and that is the name most commonly used for the taxon. If Weberbauerella Ulbrich and Weberbaueriella Ferreyra were mied to be treated as homonyms, it would establish Chucoa as unquestionably the correct name for the Composite genus. Committee recommendation. 14 vote to treat them as confusable, and 1 not to do so.
