Abstract

The revision of Lantana sect. Lantana for the projects “Flora of the Republic of Cuba” and “Flora of the Greater Antilles” confirmed the presence of 10 species and 16 infraspecific taxa in the territory. Their diagnostic characters are specified, two new forms are described (L. camara f. caffertyi and L. flava f. sandersii), the rank of three taxa is modified, and eight new combinations are established.
