Ilex phanerophlebia Merr. ( Aquifoliaceae ) in Lingnan Sci. J. 13(1): 36. 1934 . TYPE:— CHINA . Guangdong : Pok Lor (i.e. Boluo), 15 January 1931 , Fung Hom A-566 (i.e. Lingnan University Herbarium 18971) ( holotype : NY 00022454 image!; isotype: A 00049522 image!). The name Ilex phanerophlebia Merr. was validly published with a single gathering “ Fung Hom 18971 ” in NY cited in the protologue ( Merrill, 1934a ). However, on the label of the holotype specimen, the collecting number is A-566 and the herbarium number is Lingnan University Herbarium 18971. Therefore, the erroneous collecting number in the protologue is to be corrected.
