Summary Bohs, L.: Transfer of Cyphomandra (Solanaceae) and its species to Solanum. – Taxon 44: 583‐587. 1995. – ISSN 0040‐0262. Data from recent molecular studies demonstrate that the genus Cyphomandra is nested within Solanum. Recognition of Cyphomandra as a separate genus therefore is not tenable unless Solanum is broken up into smaller monophyletic units. All Cyphomandra species are transferred to Solanum , necessitating twelve new names and twelve new combinations.
