A checklist of Onagraceae in the Pan-Himalaya region Author Luo, Yike Author Xie, Lei text Phytotaxa 2023 2023-05-17 597 4 245 268 http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.597.4.1 journal article 10.11646/phytotaxa.597.4.1 1179-3163 7958600 3.8. Epilobium cylindricum D. Don (1825: 222) . Epilobium roseum Schreber (1771: 147) var. cylindricum (D.Don) C.B. Clarke (1879: 585) . Lectotype (designated by Raven 1962a ):— NEPAL . Sheopuri Hill , N of Kathmandu , 1821, N. Wallich 6328 ( BM000957922 !, isolectotypes E, G, K001123574!, K000913978!, W) . = Epilobium beauverdianum Léveillé (1910a: 138) . Type :— CHINA . Sichuan : Ta-Tsien Lou (Kangding), 1893, Soulie 449 (G). = Epilobium christii Léveillé (1910b: 19) . Type :—“Himalaya” (not located). Distribution: —N Pakistan , Jammu & Kashmir, U Ganga & Indus, C Nepal , Sikkim & Darjiling, Bhutan , U Yarlung Zangbo, L Yarlung Zangbo, S Hengduan, N Hengduan. Note: Epilobium cylindricum is close to E. royleanum Haussknecht (1879: 55) , and can be distinguished by its taller stem and distinctive capitate stigma. E. cylindricum , E. tibetanum Haussknecht (1879: 53) , E. sinense Léveillé (1907: 590) , and E. platystigmatosum Robinson (1908: 210) form a complex group in the Pan-Himalaya region ( Chen et al . 1992 ). Although Chen et al . (1992) noted that the “ holotype ” of Epilobium beauverdianum ( Soulie 449 ) is deposited in G, we are not sure the status of this specimen. We only saw a photo of Soulie 449 in BM (BM000944621) which is from the specimen in G with a “Type” label written by P. H. Raven in 1960. According to Art. 9.1, we do not determine the type status of E. beauverdianum in this paper.
