Celtis orientalis
Linnaeus
,
Species Plantarum
2
: 1044. 1753
.
"Habitat in Indiis." RCN: 7646.
Lectotype
(Soepadmo & Edi Hamli in Soepadmo,
Tree Fl. Sabah Sarawak
2: 399. 1996): Herb. Hermann 2: 2; 4: 71, No. 369 (BM).
Current name:
Trema orientalis
(L.) Blume
(
Ulmaceae
).
Note:
Polhill (in
Kew Bull.
19: 143. 1964), and some later authors, have indicated material in Herb. Hermann 2: 2; 4: 71 (BM) as syntypes but as the use of this term implies no intention to indicate a single nomenclatural type (unlike the use of
holotype
,
lectotype
or
neotype
), this is not regarded as a correctable error. Soepadmo & Edi Hamli, however, indicated the same material simply as
"type"
. Although there is material in two volumes, it appears to have been part of a single gathering, so their statement is accepted as the first typification (Art. 9.15).
