Dinesh ji The combination was made in an important paper in 1998 by Sally Bidgood<http://pubget.com/search?q=authors%3A%22Sally%20Bidgood%22&from=pgtmp_jstor4110453> and R K Brummitt<http://pubget.com/search?q=authors%3A%22R%20K%20Brummitt%22&from=pgtmp_jstor4110453> . Kew Bulletin<http://pubget.com/search?q=latest%3AKew+Bulletin&from=pgtmp_jstor4110453> *53*(1): 1-76<http://pubget.com/search?q=issn%3A0075-5974+vol%3A53+issue%3A1&from=pgtmp_jstor4110453> (1998) in which they revised the whole genus. Simply because The Plant List have not been able to resolve it (not rejected it) it is logical that we follow the combination *Neuracanthus* *tetragonostachyus* Nees<http://www.ipni.org/ipni/idAuthorSearch.do?id=6888-1&back_page=> subsp. *trinervius* ( Wight<http://www.ipni.org/ipni/idAuthorSearch.do?id=11658-1&back_page=> ) Bidgood<http://www.ipni.org/ipni/idAuthorSearch.do?id=14316-1&back_page=> & Brummitt<http://www.ipni.org/ipni/idAuthorSearch.do?id=1221-1&back_page=>
Here is small summary from the revision The genus Neuracanthus is divided into 3 sections; 30 species are recognised, with a further 5 subspecies and 3 varieties. From tropical Asia (India to Vietnam) 4 species and one subspecies are recognised, all referred to sect. Neuracanthus which also has two species in north and northeast Africa.
