Viola hederacea Labill. in Malaya
Becker (1917, 1925) considered Viola hederacea Labill., within which he placed V. sieberiana Spreng. (as V. hederacea var. Sieberi Hook, f.), to be the only member of Section Erpetion (Sweet) Becker and to belong to the ‘Antarctic Floristic Element’. V. hederacea occurs widely in temperate southern...
