Lingnan Sci. J. 11(1): 48. 1932
. TYPE:—
CHINA

image!).
The name
Tetrastigma cauliflorum
Merr.
was validly published with a gathering “
Tsang, Tang and Fung 17693
” in
NY
designated as the type (
Merrill, 1932
). However, the collecting number on the lable of the
holotype
specimen is 162, while its herbarium number is Lingnan University Herbarium 17693. Therefore, the erroneous collecting number in the designation of type is to be corrected.
