Notes:
—The original material of
H. montanum
was indicated by
Schlechter (1913)
as ‘Nordöstl. Neu-Guinea: Liane in Nebelwäldern des Finisterre-Gebirges, ca.
1300 m
ü. M. (
Schlechter n. 19057
blühend im
Januar 1907
)’. The B material is lost (
Hiepko 1978
,
Nicholas 1992
) but duplicates are found at BR, K and P. Specimen [K000894690] is fertile and well-preserved and is therefore selected as
lectotype
of
H. montanum
.
