Lagenocarpus rigidus
(Kunth)
Nees (1842: 167)
≡
Scleria rigida
Kunth (1837: 355)
.
Type
:—Brasilia meridionalis,
F. Sellow s.n
.
Lectotype
(designated here): K 00584552!; isolectotypes G 00098413!, P 00130102!.
The material examined by Kunth at B which photograph we examined at F is no longer extant. The above specimens at G, K and P has the same label as the B sheet, with the same handwriting on it which is not from Kunth, and were probably not examined by him. Most of the remaining types at B examined by Kunth (e.g.
Sellow 249
) or the Berlin types at F (e.g.
Sellow s.n
.—
Scleria junciforme
) have notes from him which handwriting is different from the mentioned labels. The material selected as
lectotype
is a well preserved and complete plant while the materials at P and specially at G are incomplete or fragmented.
Lagenocarpus tenuifolius
(Boeck.) C. B.
Clarke (1908: 64)
. ≡
Cryptangium tenuifolium
Boeckeler (1888: 32)
.
Type
:—
Rio de janeiro
,
Glaziou 15595
,
15596
.
Lectotype
(designated here):—
BRAZIL
: environs de
Rio de Janeiro
et D’Ouro Preto, 1883–1884,
A.F.M. Glaziou 15595
(K 000584538!; isolectotypes
BR 511243
!, F no. 538823!, G 00098410!, P 000130105!, 000272646!, 272647!)
Boeckeler (1888)
described
Cryptangium tenuifolium
based on
two
syntypes
. We have examined
nine specimens
and selected
Glaziou 15595
at K as the
lectotype
because it has more individuals, two complete inflorescences, and fruits in an envelope. It is worth to note that at K database
Glaziou 15596
is erroneously registered as
15696
.
