 NOTES. — Hyperdominant in Amazonia (ter Steege et al. 2020). C. antillanum Britton and C. jacquinii Fawc. & Rendle were each intended as a new name for “ C. calaba Jacq. ” with reference to Jacquin (1763: 269), but this name does not exist. Jacquin (1763: 269) did not publish a new name, he only referred to C. calaba L. (Linnaeus 1753: 514). However, he did so by mistake since Linnaeus’ species is Asiatic, whereas the taxon he was treating is from the Caribbean Region.
