Taxonomy

Berberis bracteolata was initially scientifically described and named Mahonia bracteolata by Hisayoshi Takeda.[1][3] In 1997 a paper was published by Joseph Edward Laferrière arguing for moving it and other species out of genus Mahonia to genus Berberis that has since become the most commonly accepted classification.[1][4]
