NOT A TYPE of Veronica pimeleoides Hook.f. var. rupestris Cockayne et Allan, Trans. & Proc. New Zealand Inst. 57: 39 (1926). Kellow et al., New Zealand J. Bot. 41(2): 242 (2003) state the Cockayne & Allan created superfluous and illegitimate name Veronica pimeleoides var. rupestris, by saying that Cheeseman's 1925 description of Veronica pimeleoides applies to their new variety.
