Guilandina bonducella
Linnaeus
,
Species Plantarum
, ed. 2, 1
: 545. 1762
.
"Habitat in Indiis." RCN: 3003.
Lectotype
(Rudd in Dassanayake & Fosberg,
Revised Handb. Fl. Ceylon
7: 48. 1991): Herb. Hermann 3: 35, No. 156 (BM-000594677)
.
Current name:
Caesalpinia bonduc
(L.) Roxb.
(
Fabaceae
:
Caesalpinioideae
).
Note:
Although Brenan (in Milne-Redhead & Polhill,
Fl. Trop. E. Africa, Leguminosae
2: 38. 1967) observed that this name was homotypic with
G. bonduc
L.
, he did not effectively typify the latter, so the typification of
C. bonducella
dates from
Rudd's
1991 choice.
