Botanical history
Calibrachoa serrulata was first described in 1964 by Lyman Bradford Smith and Robert Jack Downs as Petunia serrulata . The type specimen was collected on October 23, 1958 by R. Reitz and RM Klein under the collective number 7446 in Sao Joaquim ( Brazil ). The type evidence is in the USA National Herbarium of the Smithsonian Institute . Due to the division of the genus Petunia and the preservation of the name , the new name Calibrachoa serrulata was given in 1997 by João Renato Stehmann and João Semir .
