: Emei Shan, 1952,
Ji-Hua Xiong, Xiu-Shi Zhang
&
Xing-Lin Jiang 31706
(IBK-00190543!, IBSC-0003698!).
Two gatherings,
Ji-Hua Xiong, Xiu-Shi Zhang
&
Xing-Lin Jiang 31706
and
Wen-Guang Hu 8757
, were designated as male and female “type” in Chinese, respectively, in the protologue (
Chang 1954
). The sheet IBK-00190543 has a “
syntype
” symbol. The one we designate as the
lectotype
has a paper bag with some flower parts dissected presumably by the original author. This species was originally described from
Sichuan
. It was treated as a synonym of
Eurya oblonga
Y.C.
Yang (1941: 133)
var.
oblonga
by
Ming & Bartholomew (2007)
. Following
IPNI
, the correct standard
form abbreviation
for Yen Chin Yang should be Yen
C
.Yang instead of
Y
.
C
.Yang, which denominates a different author (Yung Chang Yang).
