Kalimeris (Asteraceae) is a small eastern Asian genus closely related to Aster. It is distinguished from Aster mainly by its shorter pappus. Although the length of the pappus has been considered to be a good diagnostic character, the distinction has not always been clear and the boundary between them has long been controversial among botanists. Molecular data suggest that the short pappus might have arisen in parallel in different evolutionary lines in Aster. We therefore consider it proper to merge Kalimeris with Aster. Four new combinations are proposed here: Aster incisus Fisch. var. macrodon (Vaniot & H. Lev.) Soejima & Igari, A. indicus L. var. collinus (Hance) Soejima & Igari, A. indicus L. var. stenolepis (Hand.-Mazz.) Soejima & Igari, and A. yomena (Kitam.) Honda var. angustifolius (Nakai) Soejima & Igari.
