Majovskya is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Rosaceae.[1] They are shrubs or small trees, they appear to have arisen via hybridization events between the clades Aria (Pers.) Host and Chamaemespilus (L.) Crantz.[2]
It is native to Europe and found in Austria, Czechoslovakia, France , Germany , Poland , Spain and Switzerland .[1] Majovskya sudetica has also be found in Ukraine in 2020.[3]
The genus name of Majovskya is in honour of Jozef Májovský (1920–2012), who was a Slovakian botanist and Professor of Botany in Bratislava. This was due to "the development of the taxonomy of hybridogenous Sorbus taxa in Slovakia".[4] It was first described and published by Alexander Nikolaevitsch Sennikov and Arto Kurtto in Memoranda Soc. Fauna Fl. Fenn. vol.93 on page 63 in 2017.[1][2]
The US Germplasm Resources Information Network calls Majovskya a synonym of ×Chamaearia Mezhenskyj, as while the name is legitimate, Majovskya is incorrect because ×Chamaearia should have priority (according to Shenzhen ICN 11.3).[5]
