Common names
Boscia foetida Schinz in Verh. Bot. Ver. Brandenb. 29 : 49 (1886); Pest, in Bull. Herb. Boiss. 6, App. Ill : 136, t.2, fig. 1 (1898); Gilg & Ben. in Bot.

Type: South West Africa, Karibib, Rautanen 500 (Z, holo.!) B. kalachariensis sensu Dinter in Fedde, Repert. 15 : 352 (1918).
Habitat
The subsp. foetida is itself very variable. A par­ticularly narrow-leaved form, described as B. rau­tanenii, is found in the district Swakopmund and Karibib but intermediate forms occur and so it cannot be kept separate. Also in northern South West Africa the long peduncle which is so charac­teristic of this subspecies becomes much less distinct.
Use
(a) subsp. foetida Tolken in Bothalia 10 : 62(1969).
