Taxonomy

The genus name Kozlovia is in honour of Pyotr Kozlov (1863–1935), a Russian and Soviet traveller and explorer who continued the studies of Nikolai Przhevalsky in Mongolia and Tibet.[2] The genus was first described in 1904.[1]

A 2001 study using ribosomal DNA found that Neoconopodium, Krasnovia and Kozlovia were closely related within tribe Scandiceae subtribe Scandicinae, and proposed that they be combined into Kozlovia.[3] As of December 2022, this proposal had been accepted by the Germplasm Resources Information Network,[4] but not by Plants of the World Online.[1]
