Note on the type of G. pringlei:— In the protologue Gomphrena pringlei, “State of Mexico” is reported as locus classicus and a syntype (“ Pringle 3152”) is cited. 23 specimens (Pringle’s collection no. 3152) were traced in 19 herbaria (BM000993131, BR0000008433695, C10005414, E00296890, F0047612F, GH00037071, K000583062, KFTA0000696, LECB0001745, LL00370684, M0241787, M0241788, MEL2462570, MEXU00012331, MEXU00012330, MU000000085, NDG15578, NY324496, NY324497, P00622639, P00622640, RSA 0000620, US 00102801). US 00102801 (Fig. 8) is here designated as a lectotype since it bears mature reproductive structures, is in good condition, matches the protologue, and corresponds with the current concept in Gomphrena (e.g., Calderón de Rzedowski 2005, Standley 1917). The other 22 specimens are isolectotypes.
