    1. Reviewed by James Morefield    Feb 12, 2001

    Action: changed name from "Glossopetalon pungens" to "Canotia holacantha "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "The fruits are distinctive and unmistakable for this taxon; the tall, smooth, leafless habit of the shrub in the accompanying photo further confirms the identity. Glossopetalon pungens is a low subshrub of carbonate cliff habitats, and has very different fruits.
