Hickenia
Hickenia is the name of two genera of flowering plants, both named after Dr Cristóbal María Hicken:
- Hickenia Lillo, a genus of Apocynaceae containing one species now reclassified as Morrenia scalae (Hicken) Goyder[1]
- Hickenia Britton & Rose, a genus of Cactaceae which included species now classified as Parodia
The second of these, having been published in Britton and Rose's Cactaceae (1922) is an illegitimate homonym of the former, which was published three years earlier in Physis (Buenos Aires) 4: 422.
