Current name:
Zanonia indica
L.
(
Cucurbitaceae
).
Note:
Although
Zanonia
dates from 1753, the account of this species (in
Sp. Pl.
2: 1028) omitted any specific epithet, so
Z. indica
dates from 1759. Keraudren-Aymonin (in
Aubreville
& Leroy,
Fl. Cambodge Laos
Viet-Nam
15: 18. 1975) indicated all three of the cited Rheede plates (t. 47-49) as type. This choice was restricted to t. 49 by Chakravarty, pre-dating that of Jeffrey (in
Regnum Veg.
127: 100. 1993) who restricted it to t. 47.
