Remarks
doi:10.11646/phytotaxa.416.1.7 The epithet was chosen in reference to its natural habitat, derived from the Latin words 'resicum', 'risicum' or 'riscus' which means 'cliff' or 'reef', and in reference to the anglicization of the word “risk”, alluding to its critically endangered state of conservation and the instability of its habitat.
