Abstract An evaluation is presented of the exceptionally
large number of name changes, particularly of generic attribution, proposed for
New Zealand gnaphalioid taxa, principally in the past decade. The transfer of
certain New Zealand species to
Anaphalioides,
Euchiton, and
Pseudognaphalium is supported, but some other changes, including the
establishment of
Ewartiothamnus, the resurrection of
Psychrophyton, and the relocation of New Zealand species of
Helichrysum, require (and are now receiving) further study.
