PogonolobusCoelospermum reticulatum – Pogonolobus is a synonym of Coelospermum reticulatum. However, this page already exists and redirects to Pogonolobus. It should be the other way around. I will edit the content as soon as the move is done. – Orbicule (talk) 14:14, 12 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

If you don't care about monophyly, then yes, the genus Pogonolobus as circumscribed contained a single species. But the 2009 paper listed in the references section found gross paraphyly and found Pogonolobus nested within Coelospermum, thus requiring the transfer of Pogonolobus reticulatus to the genus Coelospermum which already has several species. This article should just be moved to Coelospermum reticulatum with Pogonolobus redirecting to Coelospermum (as a synonym of the genus) and Pogonolobus reticulatus redirecting to Coelospermum reticulatum. I can re-write the article when it's moved to clarify its position and status. Rkitko (talk) 22:31, 28 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
