( G-PREL [ G00818007 ]!; probable isolecto-: G-PREL [ G00818006 , G00818008 ]!). Notes . – The lectotype of Anthericum bulbine is in the Cape herbarium, probably collected by Auge ( WIJNANDS, 1991: 157 ; 1992: 499 ). We may never be certain whether Houttuyn’s name is a later heterotypic synonym, as it is probably also based on an Auge specimen. It is not a nom. provisorium, because although he indicated that “Possibly [!] the Cape plant will belong to one of the species mentioned”, he did accept it ( MCNEILL et al., 2012 : Art. 36.1). A second step lectotypification of Pontederia stricta is made here as two collections are present in the Burman herbarium in G-PREL [G00818007, G00818008].
