Notes
:—Jean L. M. Poiret worked in herbarium P (Stafleu & Cowan 1983) where
two specimens
collected by Ledru,
with original labels were found. For these reasons the specimen showing the best quality of preservation of the important diagnostic features of the taxon was chosen as
lectotype
(Art. 9.17 of the ICN,
McNeill
et al
. 2012
,
McNeill 2014
).
