Guilandina moringa L., Sp. Pl.: 381. 1753 . [cited in Nat. Hist. II(2): 388. 1774]. ≡ Moringa oleifera Lam., Encycl. 1: 398. 1785. Notes . – A specimen in the Houttuyn herbarium from either Java or Ceylon is in G-PREL [G00818132]. A specimen from Java of this widespread SE Asian species is also present in L (L-908.133-1291). No corresponding specimen was found in UPS-THUNB. Another specimen from the Burman herbarium represents possible original material of Guilandina moringa , namely Burman 18 (G-PREL [G00818136]), which represents original material of the pre-Linnaean “Moringa zeylanica Burm. ” published in Thes. Zeyl.: 162, tab. 75. 1736. The Burman publication was cited by Linnaeus in 1753 and Burman 18 was designated as the lectotype by VIDAL (1962: 5) , but rejected by the LINNAEAN PLANT NAME TYPIFICATION PROJECT (2016) , indicating “… this would not have been studied by Linnaeus and is not original material”. The correct lectotype , which Linnaeus definitely saw, was designated by KERAUDREN & GILLETT (1963: 317) : Hermann 2: 24, n° 155 [BM000594587].
