Notes

The more conservative view of Maas & Maas (2008) is adopted here over N. Tanaka (2001).

The following are a selection of names encountered in horticulture, but reported by Mass & Mass as nom. nud. and therefore illegal combinations of dubious ancestry.

Canna aurea Hort. ex Horan. nom. nud.
Canna caripensis Hort. ex Horan. nom. nud.
Canna macrocarpa Hort. ex Horan. nom. nud.
Canna nudata Lodd. nom. nud.
Canna ovata Hort. ex Horan. nom. nud.
Canna petiolata Wall. ex Horan. nom. nud.
Canna vitellina Hort. ex Horan. nom. nud.
