ROBYNS (1963: 79)
designated
Hassler 410
as
holotype
of
Pachira marginata
f.
arborea
,
and this designation is correctable to
lectotype
(ICBN-Melbourne, Art. 9.9).
The exact citation of
P. marginata
f.
arborea
in
ROBYNS (1963: 77)
is:
“Pa. [
Pachira
]
marginata f. arborea Chodat et Hassl.
, loc. cit. [Bull. Herb. Boiss. ser. 2, V], p. 72 (1905)”.
In the original publication,
CHODAT (1904: 72)
mentions in this place:
“
Bombax marginatum K. Sch.
[...]
forma arborea
”.
Furthermore
P. marginata
A. St.
-Hil. & al. is the basionym of
B. marginatum
(A. St.-Hil. & al.) K. Schum. We consider then
P. marginata
f.
arborea
in
ROBYNS (1963: 77
, 79) therefore to be a
lapsus calami.
We believe that Robyns intended
B. marginatum
f.
arboreum
,
as did
CHODAT (1904: 72)
, since Robyns’ concept of
Pachira
included only
P. aquatica
Aubl.
and
P. insignis
(Sw.) Savigny
(
ROBYNS, 1963: 233
).
Robyns annotated 2 duplicates of
Hassler
410
in
G
([
G
00 307101], [
G00307102
]) but he did not designate either one of them as the
lectotype
. In the sense of Art. 9.17 (ICBN- Melbourne) we complete herein Robyns’ typification by narrowing down his selection to the only duplicate with both leaves and flowers as
lectotype
.
Under
B. marginatum
var.
arboreum,
HASSLER (1910: 70)
described
B. marginatum
f.
apaense
(
holotype
:
Hassler 410
) and
B. marginatum
f.
rupestre
(
holotype
:
Hassler 6031
).
