Aloe jeppeae Klopper & Gideon F.Sm. , nom. nov . Chortolirion latifolium Zonneveld & Fritz (2010: 32) . Type :— SOUTH AFRICA . Free State : Bloemfontein near airport, 24 April 2009 , G.P.J. Fritz 1025 ( holotype PRE !) . Etymology: —Since the name Aloe latifolia ( Haworth 1804: 7 ) Haworth (1812: 82) already exists, this combination is not available for Chortolirion latifolium . The new name commemorates Barbara Joan Jeppe (1921–1999), who wrote and illustrated a book on the aloes of South Africa ( Jeppe 1969 ) that is now considered to be valuable historical literature on the genus ( Smith & Steyn 2000 ). Despite her contributions to illustrating the aloes of South Africa , she has never been commemorated in the genus Aloe .
