Taxonomy edit
The species was first described by José Cuatrecasas in 1950.[2] Cuatrecasas spelt the epithet caulobotryis.[3] However, -botrys used in a scientific name is a noun, so its ending does not change.[4] As of October 2021[update], the International Plant Names Index used the spelling caulobotrys, noting the different initial spelling.[2] This approach was followed by Tropicos[5] and the International Union for Conservation of Nature,[1] among others. The original spelling was also used.[6]
