**Abstract.** The contribution of the family Rubiaceae for the *Flora dos Estados de Goiás e Tocantins - Coleção Rizzo* (FGT), published in November 2010, includes the treatment of 61 genera and 245 species. Nomenclatural types were cited in various ways, depending on the information and photographs available to the author before 2008. For numerous names, lectotype designations were not accompanied by "here designated" or a similar expression, which is required by the *Internation Code of Nomenclature* starting from 1 January 2001, therefore those designations are not valid. Also, the barcodes of type specimens were not cited in that treatment, because at that time, it was not common practice to cite that information, especially in floristic treatments, and also because barcodes were not yet assigned to specimens in many herbaria. The type citations are here corrected, type citations correctly cited with additional information added, and designate lectotypes or neotypes of names that still need to be designated, are deginated. A total of 81 lectotypifications and 11 neotypifications are here presented. A list of names newly typified is available in Appendix 1. Updates of the taxonomic and systematic changes that occurred during the last 15 years, are provided. Major changes regarding generic delimitations, mostly in the tribes Palicoureeae, Psychotriae, and Spermacoceae, have recently been proposed, and numerous new combinations have recently been published by several authors, which are here included. Following those recent generic rearrangements, three new combinations in *Palicourea* are here published, namely *P. leiocarpa*, *P. stachyoides*, and *P. subtriflora*.

INTRODUCTION

Before the 1960s, the floristic composition of the
States of Goiás and Tocantins, Central-Western Brazil,
was mostly known through the historical collections of
European botanists travelling during the 1800s and the
first decades of 1900, principally those of Johann Pohl
(1976), Augustin de Saint-Hilaire (1944), Ernst Ule (1894,
2003), Auguste François Glaziou (1905, 1906, 1907,
1909a, 1909b, 1910, 1911), and George Gardner (1975).
Starting from 1822, in Colonial Brazil, the region was
called the Province of Goyaz, and 1889, when Brazil
became a republic, it was re-named the State of Goiás.
In 1988 the State of Goiás was divided into two states,
the southern portion remained the State of Goiás, and
the northern portion became the State of Tocantins.
Ecologically, the modern state of Goiás and the south-
ern portion of the state of Tocantins are within the Cer-
rado Biome, and the northern portion of the state of
Tocantins is whitin the Amazon Region. The specimens
collected during the historical expeditions of 1800s and
through the first decades of 1900s are mostly present in
European and North American herbaria, which in the
1960s were difficult to be studied by Brazilian botanists,
due to the excessive costs of travelling.

The original state of Goiás also included the area
that nowadays corresponds to the Federal District,
where Brasília, the capital of Brazil, is currently locat-
ed. Up to the 1960s, Central-Western Brazil was a vast
region that needed to be developped and connected by
main roads with the rest of the country. This general
developmental policy was initiated by President Getúlio
Vargas (1882–1954) with the program “March to the
West” (“*Marcha para o Oeste*”) during 1937–1945, to
stimulate economic and agricultural growth in the Cen-
tral-Western Region. The program was continued by
the following President, Juselino Kubitshek (1902–1976),

who founded the city of Brasília on 21 April 1960, with
the objective of moving the capital from Rio de Janeiro
to the center of Brazil. That general move stimulated
numerous local initiatives of political and economi-
cal development, as aggressive agricultural expansion,
building of infrastructures and main roads, the florish-
ing of academic education, scientific research, and envi-
ronmental conservation. On 11 January 1961, President
Juselino Kubitshek established the two national parks
present in the state of Goiás, the *Parque Nacional das
Emas* and the *Parque Nacional da Chapada dos Vea-
deiros*. On 15 December 1961, President João Goulart
(1919–1976) inaugurated the University of Brasília.

In 1960, Howard Samuel Irwin (1928–2019) was
employed by the New York Botanical Garden, Bronx,
New York. Shortly after his appointment, Irwin initiated
the project *Flora of the Brazilian Planalto*, an interna-
tional collaboration composed by the New York Botani-
cal Garden and several Brazilian institutions, and most
importantly the recently founded University of Brasilia.
Irwin was the founder, coordinator, and main collector
of this project from 1964 to 1972. During those eight
years, in collaboration with several Brazilian and for-
eign botanists, he gathered 32,195 collections (Irwin et
al. 5001–37196; with up to 10 duplicates for each num-
ber) in the states of Goiás (which in those days included
the state of Tocantins), Minas Gerais, and Bahia, and the
Federal District. In 1971, Irwin was nominated Execu-
tive Director of the New York Botanical Garden, and
in 1972 he passed the project *Flora of the Brazilian Pla-
nalto* to William “Bill” Russell Anderson (1942–2013),
who had already accompanied Irwin in collecting expe-
ditions during previous years for the project. During
1973–1975 Anderson gathered, in collaboration with
several Brazilian and foreign botanists, 5,424 collections
(Anderson et al. 6200–11624; with up to 10 duplicates for
each number) in the states of Pará, Mato Grosso, Goiás,

of this project from 1964 to 1972. During those eight

(Anderson et al. 6200–11624; with up to 10 duplicates for
each number) in the states of Pará, Mato Grosso, Goiás,
Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. The collections realized during that project were distributed to more than 25 herbaria in Brazil and abroad (the first set of duplicates was deposited at UB, and the second set at NY), with the objective to send specimens to family specialists for identification. The field books of Irwin and Anderson are kept in NY, and have been regularly updated as identifications of the numerous specialists arrived at NY. The examination of those field books is extremely important in solving cases of ambiguous or erroneous information present on the specimen labels. It should be emphasized that due to the gatherings of Irwin and Anderson being preserved in NY, it is the largest plant collection from the States of Goiás and Tocantins outside Brazil.

At the end of the 1960s, José Ângelo Rizzo (Feb. 1931–Nov. 2018), Professor at the Federal University of Goiás, Goiânia, initiated, coordinated, and realized a collection plan for the State of Goiás, which at that time still included the modern State of Tocantins. The collection plan was presented in the first volume of the series *Flora do Estado de Goiás – Coleção Rizzo* (hereafter FGT), with the subtitle *Plano de Coleção* (Rizzo, 1981). The botanical collections were made by Rizzo and collaborators in 28 stations distributed throughout the state of Goiás, from 1968 to 1974, producing 9,605 gatherings. In 1988 the State of Goiás was divided into two states; hence, out of the 28 collecting stations, 17 are in the State of Goiás, and 11 are in the State of Tocantins. A set of specimen duplicates collected during the project *Flora of the Brazilian Planalto* was not deposited at UFG, because Rizzo had the objective to limit the specimens in that herbarium to his own collections, which explains the phrase “*Coleção Rizzo*” in the title of the floristic series that he coordinated.

After the 1980s, the botanical collections in the states of Goiás and Tocantins continued to increase, as a result of several collecting programs realized by Brazilian and foreign botanists, and the specimens gathered in these two states are mostly deposited in the herbaria of Goiânia (UFG), Brasília (CEN, IBGE, and UB), Rio de Janeiro (RB), New York (NY), Kew (K), and Utrecht (U). Rizzo distributed duplicates of his collections to numerous specialists working in Brazilian and foreign institutions for the preparation of plant families for the series *Flora do Estado de Goiás – Coleção Rizzo*.

Starting from 1981, Rizzo coordinated the publication of the series *Flora do Estado de Goiás – Coleção Rizzo* (hereafter FGT). The first 14 volumes, published during 1981–1991, had this title. From volume 15, published in 1993, and onwards, due to the division of Goiás into two states, the series was re-named *Flora dos Estados de Goiás e Tocantins*.

*Flora dos Estados de Goiás e Tocantins* – *Coleção Rizzo*. The volumes of the floristic series were published at a steady pace, reaching volume 50 (family Simaroubaceae; Devecchi & Pirani, 2021), published in 2021, three years after Rizzo’s passing away, as he assisted in the editing of the last three volumes while he was still alive. A biography of José Ângelo Rizzo was published by Galli (2017). The FGT series is currently coordinated by Vera Lucia Gomes Klein, who is also the current Director of the UFG Herbarium.

## HISTORY OF THE RUBIACEAE TREATMENT OF THE FLORA DOS ESTADOS DE GOIÁS E TOCANTINS (FGT)

In July 1997, during the Brazilian National Botanical Congress in Crato, state of Ceará, Prof. José Ângelo Rizzo invited me to contribute the treatment of the Rubiaceae family for the FGT. At that time I was recently employed as a researcher at the New York Botanical Garden. Without hesitation, I accepted his invitation. During that event, he also invited me to visit the state of Goiás. I arrived there in October 1997, and Rizzo showed me the local herbarium and accompanied me on two short excursions in the state. One was in the Bosque Auguste de Saint-Hilaire, one of the few forest remnants present in the state, which is within the Campus II of the Federal University of Goiás, Goiânia. The other excursion was on the Serra Dourada State Park, at ca. 175 km from Goiânia, which is mostly rocky outcrops on arenitic rocks, where I had the occasion to study savanna vegetation of *cerrado sensu stricto* (woody savanna) and *campos rupestres* (rocky outcrops) for the first time. After those brief excursions, I made a rapid assessment of the Rubiaceae specimens present in the UFG herbarium, and produced a preliminary checklist of 38 genera and 140 species present in the states of Goiás and Tocantins. By the end of 1997, after my return to New York, I started to organize the FGT Rubiaceae project and invited several specialists to contribute several genera.

In 1998, after compiling the data available and integrating all the collaborators in the team that had agreed to collaborate with me, I submitted to the CNPq (Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico) and IBAMA (Instituto Brasileiro do Meio Ambiente) a project with the title “*Taxonomic study of the Rubiaceae of the Federal District, and of the states of Goiás, Tocantins, Ceará, and Santa Catarina*”, with José Ângelo Rizzo (Goiás and Tocantins), Taciana Cavalcanti (Federal District), Francisca Simões Cavalcanti (Ceará) and Ademir Reis (Santa Catarina) as state coordinators, and Francisca Simões Cavalcanti as general coordinators.

tor. The same year, the project was approuved by both the CNPq and the IBAMA. Particularly important was the approaval of IBAMA to collect on the Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park and in the Emas National Park, both in the state of Goiás. That year, I started my botani-cal collections in the states of Goiás and Tocantins, accompanied by José Ângelo Rizzo, Vera Lúcia Gomes-Klein and Heleno Dias Ferreira, with the economic sup-port of the Federal University of Goiás and New York Botanical Garden. During 1999-2000, I studied the specimens from the states of Goiás and Tocantins in the NY herbarium. In 2003, I selected a large loan of Rubi-aceae specimens in NY to be sent to UFG.

During 2004-2008, I worked as a Visiting Scientist at the Federal University of Goiás, Goiânia, sponsored by the CNPq, with three main objectives: 1) floristic treat-ment of the Rubiaceae states of Goiás and Tocantins, the major objective; 2) creation of a scientific journal, which became the *Revista de Biologia Neotropical*; and 3) floris-tic study of the Serra dos Pireneus. During 2004-2008, I realized numerous collecting expeditions in the two states, and continued the study of Rubiaceae specimens for the treatment. In 2005, I studied and annotated ca. 2,500 specimens present in UFG, CEN, UB, and IBGE, and made 251 collections (*Delprete et al.* 9191-9442; with 2-6 duplicates for each number). In 2006, I studied and annotated ca. 2,000 Rubiaceae specimens and made 572 collections (*Delprete et al.* 9443-10015; with 2-8 dupli-cates for each number) in the two states. In 2007, I stud-ied and annotated ca. 2,700 Rubiaceae specimens and made 547 collections (*Delprete et al.* 10016-10563; with 2-8 duplicates each number). In 2008, I finalized the study of Rubiaceae specimens in CEN, IBGE, UB, UFG and HTO, and those on loan from NY. Especially impor-tant was the study of the specimens in CEN, as the per-sonnel of that institution made numerous recent collec-tions in remote areas of the state of Tocantins, mostly in connection with environmental impact studies of areas where new roads and new dams were built.

By September 2008, the manuscript was nearly complete, with the treatment of 58 genera finished and only a few genera still to be contributed by collabora-tors. From September 2008 to June 2009, I worked as a Researcher, with a permanent position, at the Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (IRD), in the AMAP Research Unit (CIRAD, CNRS, INRA, IRD, Univer-sity of Montpellier), in the city of Montpellier, France. I had the occasion to study at MPU, the herbarium of the Institute of Botany of the Montpellier University, where I finalized the Rubiaceae treatment for the FGT. The MPU herbarium is the second largest in France, with about four million specimens, many of them are

historical collections made in the Neotropics, including numerous original specimens collected by Ruiz & Pavon, Aublet, Glaziou, Salzmann, Saint-Hilaire, Ule, Chodat, Hassler, among many others, which helped in the clari-fication of numerous Rubiaceae taxa. In 2009 I also studied the herbaria of the National Museum of Natural History in Paris, especially P-Bonpl, P-JJR, P-Juss, and P-Lam, and the general herbarium (P).

For the realization of the Rubiaceae treatment for Federal District and the states of Goiás and Tocantins, during 1998-2008, I studied a total of ca. 60,000 speci-mens from the following herbaria, either by direct examination or the study by photographs: B, B-W, BR, CEN, F, G, G-DC, HEPH, HTO, IBGE, K, MBM, MO, MPU, NY, NX, P, P-JJR, P-Bonp, R, RB, U, UB, UFG, UFMT and US.

In June 2009, continuing as an IRD Research-er, I moved to CAY, which is also part of the AMAP Research Unit, at the IRD Center of Cayenne, French Guiana. By the end of 2009, I concluded the text of the FGT Rubiaceae treatment, produced the distribution maps for all the species, and organized the illustra-tions. Numerous species illustrations were reproduced from the Rubiaceae treament of the state of Santa Cata-rina (Delprete et al., 2004, 2005) with permission from the Smithsonian Institution and the Editor of the *Flora Ilustrada Catarinense*. Funds for the publication of FGT Rubiaceae were contributed in equal parts by the IRD and Federal University of Goiás. The Rubiaceae treat-ment was published in November 2010 as Volume 40 of the FGT, in three parts, with a total of 1610 pages, and includes the treatment of 61 genera and 245 species.

TYPE CITATIONS IN THE RUBIACEAE
TREATMENT OF THE FGT

The style of the *Flora dos Estados de Goiás e Tocantins* (FGT) is typical of similar floristic series. It included the description of the family, key to genera, descriptions of the genera, keys to species within each genus, species descriptions, illustrations, distribution maps, and citation of material examined. As a general rule, the family treatments for the FGT did not require the citation of type specimens and usually, are not con-sidered a place for typifications. Nevertheless, Prof. Riz-zo, the series coordinator, left the decision to include typifications to the judgment of the contributing authors whether and which format to use citing type specimens and/or provide typifications.

For the FGT Rubiaceae treatment, I opted to cite
the nomenclatural types in various ways, depending on
tor. The same year, the project was approuved by both the CNPq and the IBAMA. Particularly important was the approaval of IBAMA to collect on the Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park and in the Emas National Park, both in the state of Goiás.

TYPE CITATIONS IN THE RUBIACEAE
TREATMENT OF THE FGT

The style of the *Flora dos Estados de Goiás e Tocantins* (FGT) is typical of similar floristic series. It included the description of the family, key to genera, descriptions of the genera, keys to species within each genus, species descriptions, illustrations, distribution maps, and citation of material examined. As a general rule, the family treatments for the FGT did not require the citation of type specimens and usually, are not con-sidered a place for typifications. Nevertheless, Prof. Riz-zo, the series coordinator, left the decision to include typifications to the judgment of the contributing authors whether and which format to use citing type specimens and/or provide typifications.

For the FGT Rubiaceae treatment, I opted to cite
the nomenclatural types in various ways, depending on
the information and photographs available to me up to
2008, while working at the Federal University of Goiás,
Goiânia, Brazil. When I thought that only one original
specimen for a given taxon existed, I called it a holotype.
When several syntypes were cited by the original author,
sometimes I opted to designate a lectotype, depending
on the information that I had available, and whether
I was able to see the original specimens in question or
images of them. In several instances, the citation of a
lectotype was not accompanied by "here designated" or
a similar expression, which is required by the *Code* (Tur-
land et al. 2018) starting from 1 January 2001; therefore,
those lectotype designations are not valid.

Types were cited for all the accepted names in the
FGT Rubiaceae treatment and the synonyms associated
with original material collected in the states of Goiás
and Tocantins, or, rarely, in contiguous states or outside
of Brazil.

During the period that I studied the Rubiaceae of
Goiás and Tocantins, very few herbaria sent type speci-
mens on loan to UFG, and Jstor Global Plants was not
available to me, which hampered the examination of
original specimens via the internet.

For typification of the type specimens of Linnaean
taxa, the ultimate reference is Jarvis' (2007) *Order out of
Chaos*. However, that publication was not available to me
while preparing the Rubiaceae treatment.

Finally, the citation of specimen barcodes was not
included in the FGT treatment because in those days
it was not common practice to cite that information,
especially in floristic treatments, and because a barcode
number was not yet assigned to the specimens in many
herbaria.

For the above reasons, the present work corrects the
type citations that were incorrectly cited in my Rubiace-
ae treatment (Delprete 2010a, 2010b, 2010c), add addi-
tional information that became available in recent years
to the type correctly cited in FGT, and designate the
needed lectotype or neotype to names that still need to
be designated.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

The present work is intended as a nomenclatural
addition and/or correction of the typification of names
cited in the FGT Rubiaceae treament. For each accepted
name present in the treament, either a previously exist-
ing typification is cited, or a previous first-step typifica-
tion is here narrowed to a single specimen by a second-
step lectotypification. For the names that were errone-
ously or invalidly typified, a correct typification is here

presented. Numerous typifications were published after
2010 by other authors, those typifications are here cited
and, when necessary, additional information is given
and/or corrected.

For all typifications here presented, barcode num-
bers of herbarium specimens, when available, are cited
in square brackets after the herbarium code; when the
barcode number is not available, the accession number,
preceded by "Acc. No.", is cited. All specimens cited have
been examined, unless indicated by "n.v." (not seen) after
the herbarium code.

The original specimens of each name were studied
either by direct examination or examination of digital
images available in virtual herbaria or sent by herbari-
um curators. Original specimens of the following her-
baria were directly consulted: B, B-W, BHCB, BM, BR,
C, CAY, CEN, CORD, E, EAC, F, FI-W, G, G-DC, GH,
GOET, HAL, HBG, HPL, HRCB, HTO, HUEFS, IBGE,

P-Lam, R, RB, S, SI, SP, SPF, TCD, U, UPS-THUNB,
UB, UFG, US, VEN, WAG, and WIS. Digital images
of original specimens were examined via the following
virtual herbaria:

that work are here followed.

José Mariano da Conceição Vellozo (1742–1811)
worked on the flora of the state of Rio de Janeiro and
the southern portion of the state of São Paulo and had
the drawings prepared for the species that he intended
to publish. His work, due to a series of events, was pub-
lished nearly two decades after his death. According to
Borgmeier (1937) and Carauta (1969, 1973), the text of
the *Florae Fluminensis* was printed in 1825 and distrib-
uted in 1829, and the illustrations in the *Florae Flumin-
ensis Icones* were printed in 1827 and distributed 1831.

lost or destroyed (Stafleu and Cowan 1986: 696–697).

uted in 1829, and the illustrations in the *Florae Flumin-
ensis Icones* were printed in 1827 and distributed 1831.
Conceição Vellozo’s personal herbarium has either been
lost or destroyed (Stafleu and Cowan 1986: 696–697).
In the absence of original specimens, numerous authors cited the plates of *Florae Fluminensis Icones* as types of the names published by Conceição Vellozo. However, those plates cannot be treated as original material because they were published 20 years after his death. The original drawings prepared for Conceição Vellozo and included in the *Florae Fluminensis Icones* are preserved in two institutions: 1) the Manuscript Section of the National Library in Rio de Janeiro (http://bndigital.bn.gov.br/acervodigital), which is a complete set of the original plates, bound in 11 volumes, with each plate identified by a unique catalogue number; and 2) the Archives of the Torre do Tombo, Lisbon (https://digitarq.arquivos.pt/results?t=florae+fluminensis), which is an incomplete set, with only volumes 6, 7, 8, 9, and 11, and with the drawings slightly different from those in the Manuscript Section of the Brazilian National Library. Pastore et al. (2021) showed that the original plates in Lisbon are less precise than those in Rio de Janeiro. In the present taxonomic treatment, lectotypes were chosen from the original unpublished plates made for *Florae Fluminensis* kept in the Manuscript Section of the National Library of Rio de Janeiro.

Hipólito Ruiz López (1754–1816) and José Antonio Pavón y Jiménez (1754–1840) published the names in the *Flora Peruviana et Chilensis* resulting from the Botanical Expedition to the Spanish colonial territories of the Viceroyalty of Peru and Chile, during 1777–1788. Their original material consists of the original plates made by several artists during that expedition and specimens collected during and after the expedition. The specimens collected by Ruiz and Pavón in the localities of Chinchao, Acomayo, Pillao and Muña were lost in a shipwreck along the coast of Portugal. Ruiz and Pavón returned to Spain in 1788, leaving the two botanists Juan José Tafalla and Juan A. Manzanilla to recollect, during 1793–1797, in the localities of the collections lost in the shipwreck (Estrella 1991; Tepe 2018), and in other areas. Tafalla and Manzanilla sent their collections to Spain, and they were then integrated into the Herbarium Peruvianum of Ruiz & Pavón; those specimens are original material, and the names associated with them were published in *Flora Peruviana et Chilensis* and *Suplemento a la Quinologia* (Ruiz & Pavón, 1798, 1799, 1801). Lectotypes of Ruiz & Pavón's names were designated by choosing among their original plates and specimens.

Taxonomic and systematic changes made during the last decade are updated. Major changes of generic delimitation within the tribes Palicoureeae, Psychotrieae, and Spermacoceeeae have been recently proposed, and numerous new combinations have recently been published by several authors. These changes are here included,

and a few necessary new combinations in *Palicourea sensu lato*, are here presented.

The names are below organized in the same order that they were published in the FGT Rubiaceae treatment, with the citation of the corresponding volume, part, and page number, followed by the bibliographic references and type citation as reported in FGT, between quotation marks. Below each name, is indicated the currently **accepted name** for each species recognized in the FGT treatment, followed by a corrected type citation, and necessary notes explaining the typification process.

**Notes:** Delprete and Persson in Delprete (2010a: 71) cited the type of *Genipa edulis* Rich. as (translated from Portuguese) "Type: French Guiana [as "Guyane Françoise"], without locality, 1792, *Le Blond s.n.* (lectotype, P)." Persson and Delprete (2017: 79) later cited the type of this name as "French Guiana [as "Guyane Françoise"], without locality, 1792, *Le Blond s.n.* (lectotype, P, selected by Delprete and Persson (2010: 71)." However, because these two lectotype citations were published after 1 January 2001, according to the *Code* (Turland et al., 2018),
In the absence of original specimens, numerous authors cited the plates of *Florae Fluminensis Icones* as types of the names published by Conceição Vellozo. However, those plates cannot be treated as original material because they were published 20 years after his death.

Ruiz and Pavón returned to Spain in 1788, leaving the two botanists Juan José Tafalla and Juan A. Manzanilla to recollect, during 1793–1797, in the localities of the collections lost in the shipwreck (Estrella 1991; Tepe 2018), and in other areas. Tafalla and Manzanilla sent their collections to Spain, and they were then integrated into the Herbarium Peruvianum of Ruiz & Pavón; those specimens are original material, and the names associated with them were published in *Flora Peruviana et Chilensis* and *Suplemento a la Quinologia* (Ruiz & Pavón, 1798, 1799, 1801). Lectotypes of Ruiz & Pavón's names were designated by choosing among their original plates and specimens.

Taxonomic and systematic changes made during the last decade are updated. Major changes of generic delimitation within the tribes Palicoureeae, Psychotrieae, and Spermacoceeeae have been recently proposed, and numerous new combinations have recently been published by several authors. These changes are here included,

and a few necessary new combinations in *Palicourea sensu lato*, are here presented.

The names are below organized in the same order that they were published in the FGT Rubiaceae treatment, with the citation of the corresponding volume, part, and page number, followed by the bibliographic references and type citation as reported in FGT, between quotation marks. Below each name, is indicated the currently accepted name for each species recognized in the FGT treatment, followed by a corrected type citation, and necessary notes explaining the typification process.

**Accepted name:** *Alibertia edulis* (Rich.) A.Rich. ex DC. var. *edulis*

**Type:** FRENCH GUIANA: Without locality, 1792, *J.B. Le Blond s.n.* (P [without barcode, currently on loan to GB], lectotype designated by Delprete and Persson in Taylor et al. (2011: 136)).

**Notes:** Delprete and Persson in Delprete (2010a: 71) cited the type of *Genipa edulis* Rich. as (translated from Portuguese) "Type: French Guiana [as "Guyane Françoise"], without locality, 1792, *Le Blond s.n.* (lectotype, P)." Persson and Delprete (2017: 79) later cited the type of this name as "French Guiana [as "Guyane Françoise"], without locality, 1792, *Le Blond s.n.* (lectotype, P, selected by Delprete and Persson (2010: 71)." However, because these two lectotype citations were published after 1 January 2001, according to the *Code* (Turland et al., 2018),
they should have been accompanied by “here designated” or a similar expression; therefore, they are not valid. The first valid lectotypification of *Genipa edulis* was made by Delprete and Persson in Taylor et al. (2011: 136).

FGT, vol. 40(1), p. 86:

**Accepted name:** *Alibertia latifolia* (Benth.) K. Schum.

Type: GUYANA: Without locality, 1838 (fl masc), *Rob. H. Schomburgk* 91.S (K [without barcode], lectotype designated by Delprete and Persson in Delprete (2010a: 86)).

**Notes:** Bentham (1841: 221) along with the description of *Cordiera latifolia* Benth. cited the material studied as “British Guiana, *Schomburgk*” without citing the collection number or herbarium of deposit. Delprete and Persson in Delprete (2010a: 86) designated the lectotype of *C. latifolia* as (translated from Portuguese) “Guyana, without locality, 1838 (fl masc), *Rob. Schomburgk* 91.S (lectotype, K, here designated).” The K specimen did not have a barcode at the time it was studied and is currently on loan to GB, and is still without barcode. As there is only one specimen of *Rob. Schomburgk* 91.S at K, this is a valid lectotypification. Delprete and Persson (2017: 94) cited the specimen *Schomburgk* 91.S at K as holotype, but since Bentham did not cite the collection number or the herbarium of deposit, the lectotypification presented by Delprete and Persson in Delprete (2010a: 86) is here recognized as the first one validly published.

**Notes:** Steyermark (1965: 216) cited the type of *Amaioua guianensis* Aubl. as a specimen at BG (which corresponds to the herbarium of the University of Bergen, Norway), which should be interpreted as an obvious typographical error. Delprete (2010a: 91) cited the type of *Amaioua guianensis* as “(holótipo, BM, foto em NY).” As pointed out in Delprete (2015: 599), the BM specimen, with barcode BM001008914, is the same cited by Steyermark (1965: 216) as holotype, and according to the *Code* that citation should be interpreted as an inadvertent lectotype designation. For more details, see Delprete (2015).

The illustration of Figure 2 of FGT identified as *Amaioua guianensis* (reproduced from *Flora Ilustrada Catarinense* RUBI, vol. I, fig. 02) represents *Amaioua intermedia* Mart.

FGT, vol. 40(1), p. 97:

**Notes:** In the protologue of *Amaioua intermedia* Mart. in Schultes & Schultes (1829: 90-91) cited the original material as “In sylvis provinciae Bahiensis Brasiliae de Martius,” without citing the herbarium of deposit. The protologue of *Amaioua intermedia* in Schultes & Schultes (1829: 90) attributed the name and the diagnosis to Martius, and the original material was collected by Martius in the Brazilian state of Bahia.

Steyermark (1965: 212) under *Amaioua intermedia* var. *intermedia* cited the synonym “*Amaioua guianensis* var. *confertifolia* K. Schum. in Mart. Fl. Bras. 6(6): 359. 1889, type. In umbrosis circa Bahia (Brazil), 1831, *J.

The illustration of Figure 2 of FGT identified as *Amaioua guianensis* (reproduced from *Flora Ilustrada Catarinense* RUBI, vol. I, fig. 02) represents *Amaioua intermedia* Mart.

FGT, vol. 40(1), p. 97:

**Accepted name:** *Amaioua intermedia* Mart.

Type. BRAZIL. Bahia: Cachoeira, “In sylvis provinciae Bahiensis” [“in sylvis Capões et Coedrias ad Caxoeira, Febr.”], s.d. [February 1819], *C.F.P. Martius Obs. 2156* (M [barcode M-0186321], **lectotype here designated**).

**Notes:** In the protologue of *Amaioua intermedia* Mart. in Schultes & Schultes (1829: 90-91) cited the original material as “In sylvis provinciae Bahiensis Brasiliae de Martius,” without citing the herbarium of deposit. The protologue of *Amaioua intermedia* in Schultes & Schultes (1829: 90) attributed the name and the diagnosis to Martius, and the original material was collected by Martius in the Brazilian state of Bahia.

Steyermark (1965: 212) under *Amaioua intermedia* var. *intermedia* cited the synonym “*Amaioua guianensis* var. *confertifolia* K. Schum. in Mart. Fl. Bras. 6(6): 359. 1889, type. In umbrosis circa Bahia (Brazil), 1831, *J. Blanchet* 1012 (isotype NY).” Then, on the following text page, Steyermark (1965: 214) wrote “the less common variant, with somewhat more congested inflorescence,
described as var. *confertifolia* by Schumann, must serve
as the nomenclatural type of the species, *A. intermedia*.”
In the following paragraph, he wrote “The *Blanchet 1012*
specimen from the Meisner Herbarium deposited at NY
is labelled *Amaioua intermedia* and is undoubtedly the
collection from Bahia cited by Schumann in Martius’s
Flora Brasiliensis (p. 359) as var. *confertifolia*. It shows
the flowers of the staminate and pistillate inflorescences
as “conferta” and with “floribus sessilibus”.” Steyermark’s
statements are erroneous, as the original material was
collected by Martius. Steyermark’s mistaken citation of
*Blanchet 1012* as type of *A. intermedia* was reproduced
by Delprete (2010a: 97).

Searching for original material associated with of
*Amaioua intermedia*, at M there is a specimen, barcode
M-0186321, with the label “Dr. Martius Iter Brasil”. On
the label is the handwritten annotation “Amajoua inter-
media Mart. No. 2156 Obs. Habitat in sylvis Capões et
Campis ad Caxoeira, Provinciae Bah. Febr.” Another label
affixed on that sheet has the annotation “Amajoua inter-
media, si tibi plante, Schult. fil.” handwritten by Schul-
tes filius. Cachoeira is a town at the margin of Rio Para-
guaçu, at about 120 km from Salvador, the capital of the
Bahia state. The annotation “Febr” means that the speci-
men was collected in February. According to Spix and
Martius’s (1976) travel diary, they were in Cachoeira in
February 1819. The specimen M-0186321 consists of a
branch with numerous leaves and three subsessile inflo-
rescences with sessile flowers. On the branch is affixed a
small label with the number “3324” handwritten by A.
Töpfer (staff member of M) in early 1900s. This speci-
men is here designated the lectotype of this name.

On Table 228, fig. 295, of Vol. 2 of Dillenius’ (1732)
*Hortus Elthamensis*, is depicted a branch with numerous
leaves and numerous axillary inflorescences with flower
buds and flowers in anthesis. The corollas are depicted as
pendulous and narrowly campanulate. On the left side of the branch are drawn the details of flowers in anthesis with exserted bifid style, a hypanthium topped by a bifid style, and ovaries transversally dissected. At the base of the drawing is the printed text "Periclymenum racemsum, flore flavescente, fructu niveo" and on bottom right corner is printed "Plum.", meaning that Dillenius reproduced this plate from a drawing previously made by Plumier.

On Table 188, figure 3, vol. 2 of Sloane's (1725) *Voyage*, is depicted a ramose branch with numerous leaves and numerous axillary inflorescences with flower buds and flowers in anthesis. The corollas are depicted as narrowly campanulate. By the side of the branch is the text "Fig. 3. Jasminum forte, folio myrtino acuminato, aliorum ad miniculo se sustentans, flore albicante racemoso." Franck et al. (2021: 45) designated Table 188, Figure 3 as the lectotype of *Lonicera alba* as "Jamaica, St. Catherine Parish, savanna, towards Two-mile-Wood, "Jasminum forte", Sloane, Voy. Jamaica 2, tab. 188, fig. 3. 1725."

Franck et al. (2021: 45) also designated an epi-
type for *Lonicera alba* as "Jamaica, *Sloane s.n.* (epitype, BM000594058)." The epitype designation was not nec-
essary, as Table 188, Figure 3, vol. 2 of Sloane's (1725) *Voyage* provides sufficient characters for the unequivocal
application of the name. The BM specimen with barcode 000594058 has a label with the annotation "Jasminum

**Accepted name:** *Coccocypselum aureum* (Spreng.) Cham. & Schltdl.

**Type:** Brazil. Without locality, s.d., *F. Sellow s.n.* (LE n.v. [barcode unknown], genotype designated by Taylor in Davidse et al. (2012a: 58); isotype, HAL [barcode HAL114247]).

**Note:** In the protologue of *Schwenfeldia aurea* Spreng., Sprengel (1820: 280) cited the material studied as "Hab. in Brasília" without citing the collectors, collection locality or the herbarium of deposit. According to Stafleu and Cowan (1985: 806) "Kurt Sprengel's considerable and rich herbarium (21.806 species) came first to his son Anton. After the latter's death, in 1851, it was sold in parts. [...] A certain number of families and genera were sold to specialists. [...] Even after this rigorous impoverishment, a considerable portion remained and was acquired by Karl Müller in Halle. The Müller-Sprengel herbarium (12.000 species) was bought by Berlin (B) in 1890 and is now no longer extant. A certain number of specimens, however (240) is in the Willdenow herbarium [...]. Further material is at BP, FI, G, GOET (some lich.), H-Ach (lich.), L (some musci and algae), LD (200, herb. Retzius), LE, PH, PR. [...]."

Costa and Delprete in Delprete (2010a: 177) cited the lectotype of *Schwenkfeldia aurea* Spreng. as "Brasil, sem localidade, *Sellow s.n.* (lectótipo, LE n.v. designado
por Costa, 2004; foto em K.)" However, Costa's (2004) work is an unpublished doctoral thesis, and Costa and Delprete (in Delprete 2010a) did not cite "here designated" or a similar expression with their lectotype citation; therefore, both lectotype citations are not valid. Taylor (2012a: 58) designated the neotype of *Schwenfeldia aurea* as "Neotipo (designado aqui): Brasil, Sellow s.n. (LE)." Although the LE specimen was not examined, Taylor's neotypification is accepted.

At F, there is a specimen, with accession number 607172 (barcode F0071088F) with the handwritten annotation (author unknown) "Coccocypselum aureum Cham. et Schlecht." and "14", with the printed text "Brasilia. Reliquiae d. Sello". Sellow's number "14" corresponds to that of the B specimen, no longer extant. Another label has the printed text "Isotype of: *Schwenfeldia aurea* Spreng., Neue Entdeck. 1: 280. 1820." Two labels, one with the stamp "Mus. bot. Berol." and the other with the heading "Ex Museo botanico Berolinensis" prove that this specimen is a duplicate from B. On the sheet are affixed a large branch with numerous leaves and a few inflorescences, and a smaller branch with several leaves and several adventitious roots. It is tempting to designate this specimen as the lectotype of this name; however, there is no proof on the sheet that it was seen by Sprengel.

A specimen at HAL, barcode HAL114247, has the label "Coccocypselum aureum. N. (with "erythocephalum" stroked through and substituted by "aureum"), Sellow. Brasilia aequinotialis" handwritten by Sprengel, and the stamp "F. Sellow". At the bottom of the sheet is the annotation "Isoneo-Typus" in red ink. This specimen is constituted by a small branch with three leaves, and few flowers included in a small envelope. It is an isoneotype of this name.

A specimen at RSA, with barcode RSA0005726, has a label with the stamp "Herb. Reg. Berolinense" and the annotation "Coccocypselum aureum Cham. & Schlt." At the bottom of the label is printed "Brasilia" and "Sellow legit." The specimen is a ramified branch with numerous leaves, two inflorescences with flower buds and flowers in anthesis, and a few persistent fruits. Although this is a well preserved, complete specimen, there is no proof on the sheet that it was seen by Sprengel.

**Notes:** In the protologue of *Condalia repens* Ruiz & Pav., Ruiz and Pavón (1798: 54) cited the original material as collected "in nemoribus *Panatahuarum* ad *Huánuco*, *Cuchero* et *Chinchao* vicos."

Persoon (1805: 132) cited *Condalia repens* and its bibliographic citation in synonymy under *Coccocypselum condalia* Pers. The binomial *Coccocypselum repens* Sw. was published by Swartz (1788: 31), which is a superfluous name based on the previously published *Coccocypselum herbaceum* Aubl. (Aublet 1775: 68). *Coccocypselum condalia* is a replacement name for *Condalia repens*. Therefore, the type of *Coccocypselum condalia* must be the type of *Condalia repens* (Art. 6.13). There are at least three original specimens and one original drawing of *Condalia repens*, which are described and discussed below.

The MA specimen with barcode MA815739 has the printed annotation "Herbario de Ruiz y Pavón". On the sheet is affixed a label with the handwritten annotation "Coccocipsilum repens, System. Vegetab., Fl. Per. pag. 28. Condalia repens Sp. Pl., Fl. Per. vol. 1. p. 54. ic. 84. de Chicoplaya. 1798. de Iscutunam. 1787. nº 385." Another label has the heading "Herbarium Peruvianum Ruiz et Pavon" and the handwritten annotation "Coccocypselum condalia Pers., det. K. Krause, XII 31." On the sheet is affixed a third label with the name "Coccocypselum repens" and a long, handwritten description of the species, starting from the front of the label and ending on the back of the label, terminating with the collection locality and flowering time "habitat Cochero in umbrosis. floret mense julii". The specimen has several branches with inflorescences and infructescences. This specimen is here designated the lectotype of *Condalia repens*.

The MA specimen with barcode MA815740 has the printed annotation "Real Jardin Botánico C.S.I.C., Herbario numerado en abril de 2010". It has a label with the annotation "Condalia repens - Fl. Peruv. 1. tab. 84 - Ex Herbario Fl. Peruv. anno 1828" probably handwritten by Pavón. Two other small labels have the annotations "Coccocipsilum repens, Fl.

However, Costa's (2004) work is an unpublished doctoral thesis, and Costa and Delprete (in Delprete 2010a) did not cite "here designated" or a similar expression with their lectotype citation; therefore, both lectotype citations are not valid. Taylor (2012a: 58) designated the neotype of *Schwenfeldia aurea* as "Neotipo (designado aqui): Brasil, Sellow s.n. (LE)." Although the LE specimen was not examined, Taylor's neotypification is accepted.

At F, there is a specimen, with accession number 607172 (barcode F0071088F) with the handwritten annotation (author unknown) "Coccocypselum aureum Cham. et Schlecht." and "14", with the printed text "Brasilia. Reliquiae d. Sello". Sellow's number "14" corresponds to that of the B specimen, no longer extant. Another label has the printed text "Isotype of: *Schwenfeldia aurea* Spreng., Neue Entdeck. 1: 280. 1820." Two labels, one with the stamp "Mus. bot.

At MA, there is a drawing by Isidro Galvéz of the Royal Botanical Expedition to the Viceroyalty of Peru of Hipólito Ruiz & José Pavón. The drawing is affixed on a larger sheet, on which is a label with the printed annotation "REAL JARDÍN BOTÁNICO, CSIC ARCHIVO, Real Expedición Botánica al Virreinato del Perú, AJB04-D-0186_001". On the upper line of the drawing is the number "LXXXIV", which corresponds to the plate number published in 1798. On the drawing is depicted a branch with adventitious roots at almost every node, and leaf pairs at every node. The leaf blades are ovate to lanceolate, discolorous, and puberulent below.

Costa (2004) indicated as neotype of this name a specimen denoted as "Sellow s.n. in Herb. Chamisso" in LE. As Costa's citation is part of an unpublished dissertation, it is not a valid typification. Costa and Delprete (in Delprete 2010a: 186) simply stated that the B holotype was destroyed. Searching for possible original material, two specimens were found associated with this name, which are below discussed.

A specimen at F, with Accession No. 607169 and barcode F0068790F, has a label with the heading "Museo botanico berolinensi" and "Brazil" handwritten by an unknown author. On the lower right corner is the stamp "Mus. bot. Berol." proving that the specimen originated from the Berlin herbarium. On the lower left corner is affixed a label with the heading "Herb. Reg.

The specimen consists of a branch with numerous leaf pairs and a few pedunculate, globose inflorescences. The entire plant is characterized by the golden pubescence on the reproductive and vegetative parts. The gathering *Sellow 1090* was among the gatherings cited by Schumann in Martius (Fl. Bras. 6(6): 317-318. 1889) for this species. This specimen is here designated the lectotype of *C. erythrocephalum*.

The specimen has the golden pubescence on the reproductive and vegetative parts that characterize this species and consists of one branch with several leaf pairs and an inflorescence. The collector is not indicated. On the specimen is affixed the annotation "Coccocypselum erythrocephalum Cham. & Schltdl., C.B. Costa, 4/7/2002". On the lower portion of the stem is also affixed a minute label with the number "3155" handwritten by A. Töpfer. This specimen is not original material.

**Notes:** In the protologue of *Coccocypselum hasslerianum* Chodat, Chodat and Hassler (1904: 169) cited two gatherings: “inter rupes pr. Chololó in valle fluminis Y-aca, Dec., [*Hassler*] n. 6592” and “*Balansa*: [...] Santa Barbara, dans les forêts humides, Febr., n. 1740.” Costa and Delprete in Delprete (2010a: 189) cited the type of *C. hasslerianum* Chodat as “Paraguay, [...], *E.

Duplicates of the gathering *Hassler* 6592 are present in many herbaria, and priority should be given to the specimens in G, as Robert Hippolyte Chodat (1865-1934) worked in Geneva, and after his death his personal herbarium was integrated into G. In G, there are several specimens associated with this name, which are discussed below.

On the G sheet with barcode G00306692, there is a photograph of the specimen *Hassler* 6592 at B, which was destroyed during WWII. On the sheet, there is also a label with the heading “Types of the Berlin Herbarium, Rockefeller Foundation Fund for Photographing Type Specimens” and the handwritten annotation “262.

On the G sheet with barcode G00306693, there is a label “Acquis et intercalé dans la collection générale de l'Herbier Delessert en 1903” (Aquired and intercalated in the Delessert Herbarium in 1903). A second label on that

sheet has the heading “Dr. E. Hassler, Plantae Paraguarienses. – 1900. Florula Cordillerae Centralis” and the annotations “No. 6592, Coccocypselum Hasslerianum Chodat. In regione cursus superioris fluminis Y-acá, Lect. mens. Dec.” The specimen consists of a branch with several leaf pairs and a subsessile inflorescence.

The G specimen with barcode G00306694 is mounted on two sheets. On the first sheet is affixed the label “Plantes provenantes de l’herbier du Professeur Robert Chodat, intercalées dans l’herbier générale du Conservatoire botanique de la Ville de Genève en 1970.” (Plants from the Professor Robert Chodat’s Herbarium, intercalated in the Botanical Conservatory of the city of Ginevra in 1970). A second label on the first sheet has the heading “Dr. E. Hassler, Plantae Paraguarienses. 1900” and the annotations “No. 6592, In valle fluminis Y-acá, inter rupes prox. Chololó. Lect. mens. Dec.” On the first sheet, there are two branches with several leaf pairs and several subsessile inflorescences. On the second sheet, there is pinned a label with the heading “Université de Genève – Herbiers” and the stamp “Université de Genève – Institute de Botanique – Collections”, the number “6592” written in pencil, and “E. Hassler” written in black ink. On the second sheet there is no barcode number, as the two sheets belong to the same specimen. On the second sheet, there are two branches with several leaf pairs. One branch has an infructescence with immature fruits. Article 8.3, Ex. 9 of the Code (Turland et al., 2018) states “In the herbaria in Geneva (G and G-BOIS, but not G-DC) specimen folders may be used to house preparations, consisting of one to numerous herbarium sheets that comprise a single specimen and possess a single original label. Although the sheets themselves are usually not individually labelled as being part of the same specimen, they are physically kept together. The individual sheets are not therefore duplicates but are parts of a single specimen.” As two sheets with barcode G00306694 are kept together and the label with the collection locality and the plant description is present only on the first sheet, they are treated as a single specimen with multiple preparations.

The G specimen with barcode G00306695 has the label “Herbier Emil Lasser, Plantae Paraguarienses, Herbier personnel du Dr Emil Lasser (1864-1937), constitué de plantes récoltés entre 1885 et 1919 au Paraguay et régiones adjacentes de l’Argentine, du Brésil et de la Bolivie.

Notes: In the protologue of *Coccocypselum hasslerianum* Chodat, Chodat and Hassler (1904: 169) cited two gatherings: “inter rupes pr. Chololó in valle fluminis Y-aca, Dec., [*Hassler*] n. 6592” and “*Balansa*: [...] Santa Barbara, dans les forêts humides, Febr., n. 1740.” Costa and Delprete in Delprete (2010a: 189) cited the type of *C. hasslerianum* Chodat as “Paraguay, [...], *E. Hassler* 6592 (lectótipo G, designado por Costa, 2004; isolectótipos, G, BM, K, MA, NY, P).” However, Costa (2004) is an unpublished doctoral thesis and that lectotype designation is not valid. Duplicates of the gathering *Hassler* 6592 are present in many herbaria, and priority should be given to the specimens in G, as Robert Hippolyte Chodat (1865-1934) worked in Geneva, and after his death his personal herbarium was integrated into G. In G, there are several specimens associated with this name, which are discussed below.

On the G sheet with barcode G00306692, there is a photograph of the specimen *Hassler* 6592 at B, which was destroyed during WWII. On the sheet, there is also a label with the heading “Types of the Berlin Herbarium, Rockefeller Foundation Fund for Photographing Type Specimens” and the handwritten annotation “262. Coccocypselum Hasslerianum Chod., Paraguay, Hassler 6592.”

On the G sheet with barcode G00306693, there is a label “Acquis et intercalé dans la collection générale de l'Herbier Delessert en 1903” (Aquired and intercalated in the Delessert Herbarium in 1903). A second label on that

**Accepted name:** *Coccocypselum hirsutum* Bartl. ex DC.

Type: [SOUTH AMERICA, unknown country]: Without locality, s.d., *T. Haenke s.n.* (holotype PR [Acc. No. 612586], isotype G-DC [barcode G00666465]).

**Notes:** In the protologue of *Coccocypselum hirsutum* Bartl. ex DC., Candolle (1830: 396-397) cited the material studied as “Patr. ign. (v.s. in h. Haenke).” Candolle’s statement means that he studied material from the Haenke’s herbarium.

According to the Stafleu and Cowan (1979: 6) Haenke’s “herbarium and types are at PR” and the “Reliquiae haenkeanae were distributed from Prague after 1816.” The botanists Thaddeus Haenke (1761-1816) and Luis Née participated in the Malaspina expedition, which was commanded by Alessandro Malaspina (1754-1810) and José de Bustamente y Guerra (1759-1825), and toured around the World from 1789 to 1794, with purely scientific goals. Haenke missed the ships of the expedition (*Descubierta* and *Atrevida*) leaving from Cadiz (Spain) in July 1789, and eventually boarded them in Santiago de Chile in April 1790. In the New World, with Haenke on board, the expedition touched ground in Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Panama, and Mexico, and eventually Alaska. As Haenke did not indicate the countries of his collections, it is impossible to know the country of origin of the original material of *Coccocypselum hirsutum*.

The Haenke Herbarium is intercalated in PR. In PR, there is an original specimen of *Coccocypselum hirsutum* collected by Haenke, with Accession No. 612586, constituted by two branches with typical hirsute vestiture, with numerous leaves, inflorescences, and infructescences. The specimen label has the annotation “Coccocypselum hirsutum Bartl.” and the stamp “THADDAEUS HAENKE”. That specimen is the holotype of this name.

In G-DC there is a specimen, barcode G00666465, with two labels handwritten by Candolle, “*Coccocypselum hirsutum* Bartl.” and “herb. Haenk., patr. ign.” The specimen consists of a portion of a branch with a few leaves and is an isotype.

**Notes:** In the protologue of *Condalia lanceolata* Ruiz & Pav., Ruiz and Pavón (1798: 54-55) cited the collection locality as “Habitat in nemoribus *Cuchero* et *Chinchao* locis umbrosis.” Costa and Delprete in Delprete (2010a: 193) cited the type of *Condalia lanceolata* as “Peru, Cuchero e Chinchao, *Tafalla & Manzanilla s.n.* [in *Ruiz & Pavón*] (lectótipo MA, designado por Costa, 2004).” However, Costa’s (2004) monograph is an unpublished doctoral thesis, and her lectotype citation is not valid. Apparently in MA, there is no original drawing made during the Royal Botanical Expedition to the Viceroyalty of Peru that can be associated with this name. In MA there are two specimens that should be considered as possible original material of *Condalia lanceolata*, which are discussed below.

The MA specimen with barcode MA815737, has a label with the annotation “Condalia capitata Sp. Pl. Fl. Per. - Fl. Per. c. t. 3. de Chinchao. An Coccocipsilum?” handwritten by Pavón. A second label has the heading “Herbarium Peruvianum Ruiz et Pavon” and the handwritten annotation “3/100. Coccocypselum canescens Willd., det. Krause, VII. 1930.” A third label has the annotation “Coccocypselum lanceolatum (Ruiz & Pav.) Pers., C.B. Costa, 19/VIII/2002.” The name “Condalia capitata” has never been published. Most likely, Ruiz and Pavón changed their minds, and published the name of this species as *Condalia lanceolata*. The specimen consists of three branches with several leaf pairs. Two branches have an inflorescence at the distal node. This specimen is original material and is here designated as the lectotype of *Condalia lanceolata*.

**Accepted name:** *Coussarea contracta* (Walp.) Benth. & Hook. f. ex Müll.Arg.

Type: BRAZIL. Rio de Janeiro: Near the city of Rio de Janeiro, s.d., "Meyens" [F.J.F. Meyen] s.n. (K [bar-code K000432690], *lectotype here designated*).

**Notes:** Walpers (1843: 351-352) in the protologue of *Faramea contracta* Walp. cited the material studied as "Brasilia: prope Rio de Janeiro, (v. s.)", meaning that he saw herbarium specimen(s) collected in Rio de Janeiro, without citing the herbarium of deposit. According to Stafleu and Cowan (1988: 45) "Walper's own herbarium containing many of the types of his new taxa, was sold after his death. This herbarium contained about 3000 species in 53 portfolio's "fast ungeordnet". [...] All these collections were offered for sale, but their present location is unknown." At K there is a specimen with barcode K000432690. It has a label with the handwritten annotation (author unknown) "Faramea contracta Walpers, proxima F. latifolia DC. Brasilia. Prof. Dr. Meyens legit (Walpers)." Most likely, both Walpers' original citation and the label of this specimen refer to a collection made by the Prussian Franz Julius Ferdinand Meyen (1804-1840), who was on a tour around the World during 1830-1832, as Physician and Botanist, and collected in Brazil (Vegter, 1976). The K specimen consists of a branch with numerous leaves and several inflorescences and is here designated the lectotype of *Faramea contracta* Walp.
