Publication:—Dutch-Belgian Bromeliad Society (BCG), Utrecht, The Netherlands (2018).

Taxonomy:—Catopsis floribunda Type designated here: Plee 543 (P, probably L.B. Smith missed the number on the sheet, the only specimen at P, annotated by Mez but not by L.B. Smith) .—Ochagavia lindleyana Because Bromelia carnea Beer was included as a synonym by Mez, Ochagavia carnea has priority over Ochagavia lindleyana Mez. O. lindleyana is an illegitimate and superflous name that is automatically typified under icn 7.5 by the type of B. carnea; the lectotype is incorrectly designated by Zizka et all. 2002. .—Pitcairnia werckleana Based on the sepal length and possibly on the petal color (orange for Costa Rica and yellow in the Andes), this species is kept as a separate species, but more study is needed. .—Renealmia spica multiplici, alia angustifolia Considered a synonym of Tillandsia polystachia (L.) L. based on Boerhaeve plate. .—Renealmia spica multiplici, flore albo Considered a synonym of Tillandsia fasciculata Sw. based on Boerhaeve plate .—Tillandsia insularis Type specimen Steindachner 29 is lost at B (in WW2) .
