Coleus Blumei Viroid 1
''Coleus'' is a genus of annual or perennial herbs or shrubs, sometimes succulent, sometimes with a fleshy or tuberous rootstock, found in the Old World tropics and subtropics. The relationship among the genera ''Coleus'', ''Solenostemon'' and ''Plectranthus'' has been confused. ''Coleus'' and ''Solenostemon'' were Synonym_(taxonomy)#Botany, sunk into ''Plectranthus'', but recent phylogenetic analysis found ''Plectranthus'' to be Paraphyly, paraphyletic with respect to other related genera in the subtribe Plectranthinae. The most recent taxonomic treatment of the genus resurrected ''Coleus'', and 212 names were changed from combinations in ''Plectranthus'', ''Pycnostachys'' and ''Anisochilus''. ''Equilabium'' was segregated from ''Plectranthus'', after phylogenetic studies supported its recognition as a phylogenetically distinct genus. ''Coleus'' are cultivated as ornamental plants, particularly ''Coleus scutellarioides'' (syns. ''Coleus blumei'', ''Plectranthus scutellarioides' ...

Sensu
''Sensu'' is a Latin word meaning "in the sense of". It is used in a number of fields including biology, geology, linguistics, semiotics, and law. Commonly it refers to how strictly or loosely an expression is used in describing any particular concept, but it also appears in expressions that indicate the convention or context of the usage. Common qualifiers ''Sensu'' is the ablative case of the noun ''sensus'', here meaning "sense". It is often accompanied by an adjective (in the same case).

Coleus Barbatus
''Coleus barbatus'', also known by the synonyms ''Plectranthus barbatus'' and incorrectly ''Coleus forskalaei'' (and other spellings of this epithet), is a tropical perennial plant related to the typical coleus species. It produces forskolin, an extract useful for pharmaceutical preparations and research in cell biology. Name The Brazilian name is (), or , as opposed to the Chilean true boldo; (); (); or (; 'Oxalá's carpet', because of its velvety texture). Taxonomy ''Coleus barbatus'' was first described by Henry Cranke Andrews in 1810 as ''Plectranthus barbatus''. It was transferred to ''Coleus'' by Bentham in 1830. Although ''Coleus'' was previously sunk into ''Plectranthus'', the original binomial was revived in a major study of the subtribe Plectranthinae in 2019. There has been some confusion over the synonyms of this species. ''Plectranthus forskaolaei'' was first described by Vahl in 1790.

Plants Of The World Online
Plants of the World Online (POWO) is an online database published by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. It was launched in March 2017 with the ultimate aim being "to enable users to access information on all the world's known seed-bearing plants by 2020". The initial focus was on tropical African Floras, particularly Flora Zambesiaca, Flora of West Tropical Africa and Flora of Tropical East Africa. The database uses the same taxonomical source as Kew's World Checklist of Selected Plant Families, which is the International Plant Names Index, and the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP). POWO contains 1,234,000 global plant names and 367,600 images.

Capitanopsis
''Capitanopsis'' is a genus of plants in the family Lamiaceae, first described in 1916. It contains six known species, all endemic to Madagascar. Taxonomy Phylogeny In 2019, Paton et al. published a summary cladogram for the subtribe Plectranthinae, based on an earlier 2018 study. The formerly recognized monotypic genera ''Dauphinea'', ''Madlabium'' and ''Perrierastrum'' were found to form a clade with three species placed in ''Capitanopsis'', so were transferred to that genus. ''Capitanopsis'' was a sister of the newly established genus ''Equilabium''. Species Paton et al. (2018) recognize six species: * ''Capitanopsis albida'' (Baker) Hedge * ''Capitanopsis angustifolia'' (Moldenke) Capuron * '' Capitanopsis brevilabra'' (Hedge) Mwany., A.J.Paton & Culham, syn.
