NOTES Lecomte (1928a: 111) described this species based on the gatherings Poilane 10167 and Poilane 12439 . Nguyen (1996: 63) cited “ Poilane 10167 – P (holo)”, effectively designating the type collection, despite the wrong denomination. Since three sheets have been located at P, we add a second-step lectotypification by naming the best preserved sheet (barcode P00721432) as the lectotype .
