With the impending revision of the IOS Succulent Lexicon and a growing awareness that the current classification of the genus Haworthia is unnatural, the time is ripe to propose a list of species names that I (MB) consider worthy of recognition. This list is essentially the same as that published recently in Haworthia Update 7(4): 30–40 (2012), in which we formally published numerous new combinations and new synonyms. There are two changes from that list implemented here. New information prompts us to recognise H. marxii as a species distinct from H. emelyae, and we transfer var. livida from H. pubescens to H. maculata also on the basis of new information.
My considered opinion is that there are at most about 60 species in Haworthia and that a better and more critical treatment would reduce this still more. This contrasts markedly with Breuer (2010), who lists 368 ‘accepted’ species and reports the even more startling claim that Hayashi recognises 550! Some of this increase is due to the tendency for these authors to treat my varietal names as full species but they have also described many new species de novo. I am unable to accept all of their proposed taxa in the context of my extensive field knowledge of the genus and my practical experience of patterns of variation among wild populations.
Species concepts in the genus have always been idiosyncratic, driven primarily by a propensity to recognize variation over similarity and fostered by a general ignorance of the extent of intra-population variability in the wild. The recent almost exponential proliferation of names has succeeded in surrounded the genus with a thicket of nomenclatural twigs that is almost impossible to penetrate and which obscures rather than illuminates any real understanding of the genus. The very appeal of the genus is its almost infinite capacity to vary, and it is a tragedy that they are no longer appreciated for their individuality but are instead pushed into or pulled out of taxonomic boxes almost willynilly. It is very difficult not to suspect the motivation behind some of this bedlam.
While we in no way wish to proscribe anybody from expressing their opinions, we issue an urgent plea for restraint. The nomenclatural flood that has all but submerged the genus will only be exacerbated by floating additional formal names and combinations on the turbulent waters. In fact, we go so far as to recommend a moratorium on the publication of any new taxa in the genus that are proposed without an extensive survey of relevant variation patterns in the wild. Scientific journals reduce the chances that inadequately researched papers will see the light of day by sending all submissions to competent referees for comment and evaluation. Popular journals that transgress into the scientific arena by accepting descriptions of new taxa should do the same and the responsibility for this lies firmly with the editors.
Every scientific name that enters currency has to be accounted for by botanists in their lists and publications. To remove them from circulation requires a separate, formal act for each and every name. Dealing with the many dubious names in Haworthia is taxing task that can be ill afforded. Numerous invalidly published or illegitimate names have also entered circulation through non-adherence to the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, which aims to regulate scientific names. This adds to the confusion and to the work.
What in fact is the primary purpose of these scientific names? Among botanical circles, species names carry a great deal of weight. In most instances they imply that individuals that share a name also share a common ancestry and can interbreed to produce viable seeds. Species with different names will not. Is this philosophy applied in Haworthia? The process of recognising species in botanical circles is generally top-down, with genera being first split into component species and the species then into subspecies or varieties acording to the particular patterns of variation shown by the constituent populations. This does not seem to apply in Haworthia. Here the process is largely bottom-up, with individuals or populations being given names and then shuffled into or among species. This is patently absurd.
In general terms, botanical names largely reflect similarities whereas horticultural names highlight differences. The two systems are thus not always congruent and little is to be served by confusing them. We therefore recommend that growers exploit the advantages of an informal system of nomeclature that will give them unlimited flexibility without clogging up the formal nomenclature any further. We also urge the Editors of popular journals to encourage the use of this system among their contributers. The great advantage of such an informal and non-ranked system is that it removes the hierarchical constraints that are inherent in the Linnaean system and that have already created problems with the placement of varieties and forms of Haworthia.
It could not be easier to implement and use: instead of worrying about the taxonomic level at which the variant is to be recognized (is it a subspecies, or a variety, or a form) the name appears in inverted commas without any indication of its rank. Such informal names can also be moved between species without any formal changes that are otherwise necessary. They are likely to be more descriptive and meaningful than a bare Latinised trivial epithet. As an example, should Mr Smith consider that the form of H. mirabilis var. sublineata from south of Bredasdorp with paler, attenuate leaves deserves special recognition, then he might usefully refer to those plants under the informal name H. mirabilis ‘Bredasdorp Pale’ Smith 2015. A typical illustration should be designated to fix the application of the name. Transferring of the variant to another species should follow the Zoological Code in carrying over the first author only (now in brackets) and not the transferring author as well. Thus: H. mirabilis ‘Bredasdorp Pale’ (Smith 2015). We are most grateful to Harry Mays, Editor of the Haworthia Update for his assistance and advice on this aspect.
THE LIST: All taxa that we accept are indicated in bold.Taxa that are not accepted at any rank are included as synonyms. Where possible we formally synonomise such names that have not yet been formally synonomised but many others (indicated with an asterisk *) do not appear in the International Plant Names Index (www.ipni.org) as of 20 January 2012 and are thus evidently unpublished or manuscript name. The publication of such names in the literature is irresponsible. Names that are separated by a full stop (.) are based on different types (heterotypic or taxonomic synonyms) whereas those separated by a colon (:) are based on the same type (homotypic or nomenclatural synonyms).

± 60 species, very variable and complex. The taxonomy of the genus is still unresolved. Species concepts used here largely follow Bayer’s (1976, 1982, 1997) treatments and are based on geographical distribution and co-occurrence.
NOTE: Recent phylogenetic analyses of nuclear and plastid DNA sequence data supports the view that the three subgenera comprise quite distinct lineages not immediately related to one another. They are thus as distinct as some of the other smaller genera and should thus logically be treated as separate genera. A more useful option is probably to include all of the alooid genera within Aloe.
