    Dichromena latifolia Baldwin det E. P. Killip, 1952
    Note: "I see no strong evidence that this is type material for Dichromena latifolia Baldiwn, despite Killip's assertion that it is. The type at CHARL and the original published description both give the locality as "...in M'Intosh county, Georgia, and in Florida," and collected by Baldwin. The CHARL sheet also uses the original field name of D. involucrata which was later changed to D. latifolia in the published description." Conf. Wayt Thomas, 1996
