Crotalaria vitellina var. laeta (Mart. ex Benth.) Windler & S.G. Skinner (1982: 186) . Lectotype (designated here):— BRAZIL . “Prov. Piauhy. Brasilia tropica”, 1839, G . Gardner 2103 ( K000187675 !; isolectotypes BM000900983 !, L0005768 !, P02731906 !). Lectotype image: http://specimens.kew.org/herbarium/ K000187675 . In the protologue of Crotalaria laeta , Bentham (1859) mentioned two collections: “ Habitat in pascuis amoensis serenis prov. Piauhiensis: M ” and “ Gardner n. 2103” . Windler assigned the material in M (collected by Martius) as lectotype . Although this material actually corresponds to C. laeta , it was also included by Bentham (1859) among the syntypes of C. vitellina var. glabrata . As the material of Gardner in K most closely resembles the original description and is more complete as it has flowers and fruits, we designate it here as lectotype .
