List of taxa named by Ruiz and Pavón



Hipólito Ruiz López and José Antonio Pavón Jiménez are jointly cited as the authors of many botanical names. Between 1779 and 1788 these Spanish botanists (together with the French botanist Joseph Dombey) visited Chile, Peru and other South American countries. Their standard author abbreviations are "Ruiz" and "Pav.", so that they are now jointly cited as "Ruiz & Pav." Ruiz y Pavón is the Spanish form of the Latin Ruiz et Pavón; both mean "Ruiz and Pavón".

Taxa of Ruiz & Pavón
Although Ruiz and Pavón named plant genera after one another, Cavanilles was working independently at about the same time and honoured each of them with the genus names Pavonia Cav. (in family Malvaceae), and Ruizia Cav. (in family Sterculiaceae), which were published before their own work. Pavonia Ruiz & Pav. and Ruizia Pav.(in family Monimiaceae) are thus homonyms.
