"It was established in 1963 as Flóra, obtaining its current title in 1972." is bunkum. It was a new magazine, started in 1972 with issue 1. The foreword in that issue makes clear that Flóra was replaced by two new publications, and refers to Flóra as a separate entity ("that journal").

It's less straightforward than you think, but I have no time right now, I'll have another look at this tomorrow. --Randykitty (talk) 16:23, 19 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Askell Löve in Arctic and Alpine Research writes "Acta is a continuation of Flóra" and repeats that assertion (with some more details) in Taxon. A second publication coming from Flóra is not mentioned. I based my edits on these sources, but I guess that we should give precedence to the editorial in the journal itself. --Randykitty (talk) 17:16, 21 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
