NOTES Lecomte (1928b: 146) cited Pierre 11 and 29 from Baria and Saigon in the protologue. We located both collections at A , K , NY , P and VNM , however we found that they are heterogeneous because they both include specimens collected on different dates or from different localities. Here , we designate the specimen P00721572 , among the duplicates from Saigon of Pierre 11 , as the lectotype , and we exclude from the original material the specimens with discrepant collection data.
