Assa indica Houtt. ex Christm. & Panz., Vollst. Pflanzensyst. 4: 40, tab. 26, fig. 1. 1779. ≡ Tetracera indica (Houtt. ex Christm. & Panz.) Merr., Interpr. Herb. Amboin.: 367. 1917. Lectotypus (designated by HOOGLAND, 1953: 207 ): INDONESIA . Java : Radermacher s.n. [?] (L-902.111-291!). Notes . – The genus Assa Houtt. was validly published by Houttuyn in Natuurlijke Historie (Nat. Hist. II(5): 275. 1775) with no designation of a type species. It is now accepted under the Linnaean name Tetracera L. Assa indica was published four years later by CHRISTMANN & PANZER (1777 -1788). A Thunberg specimen (the type of Wahlbomia indica Thunb. ) is in the Thunberg herbarium (UPS-THUNB n° 12837), which is not a duplicate as it was collected by Thunberg after 1775.
