Pinguicula loxensis
Bonpland
in
Humboldt & Bonpland (1806
–1823: 22),
nom. nud.
Note
:—
Pinguicula calyptrata
was firstly referred as
Pinguicula loxensis
Bonpl.
(
Humboldt & Bonpland 1806
–1823: 22) and this name also appears in
Humboldt & Bonpland (1805)
, but it was never validly published or used otherwise (see
Casper, 2003
for further discussion on this topic). Humboldt and Bonpland seem to have been the first collectors who consistently numbered their plant material in the field (
Lack 2001
); nevertheless, in the work
Nova genera et species plantarum
(
Bonpland & Humboldt 1817
), the authors did not link any specimen to the new names published for
Pinguicula
. The herbarium of the National Museum of Natural History in Paris (MNHN-P), which keeps the Bonpland’s private herbarium of the collections made by Humboldt and Bonpland in America (P-Bonpl), holds
three specimens
of
P. calyptrata
from this expedition. Two of these specimens were cited by
Casper (1966)
, the first one as “
holotype
” (P00670050) kept in the general herbarium P, and the second as “Dupl. in herbaria Bonpland-P” (P00603424). Those specimens certainly resulted from a single gathering according to the locality (Loxa) and collector number (3319); on the other hand, the third specimen (P00603425), in spite of bearing a handwritten label by Bonpland, lacks collector number, and the information on locality is different (
Pérou
) which makes it difficult its recognition as
isolectotype
. Because of this, we agree with Casper’s selection and the specimens P00670050 and P00603424 are here corrected to
lectotype
and
isolectotype
respectively.
