Notes.
– This species is found in
Gabon
and
Democratic Republic of Congo
(
VERDCOURT, 1977
). It was illustrated by
VERDCOURT (1977: 795
, fig. 2). Two specimens of the type of
Chazaliella macrocarpa
Verdc.
are deposited at BR, one with a label and an annotation by VERDCOURT with this name, an another with no label, no annotation with any name, a barcode number that indicates it was accessioned separately and later than the first specimen, and no indication that it was studied by Verdcourt, who routinely annotated the specimens he saw. Therefore the specimen annotated by Verdcourt appears to be the
holotype
, and the other specimen at BR an isotype.
