content: Specimen is originally labeled as Pteris arborescens Mart. & Galeotti. Type of that name is Galeotti 6375. Number on original label of this specimen is unclear, 6375 or 6376, one apparently written over the other. Galeotti 6376 is the type of Litobrochia mexicana Fee (=Pteris mexicana). According to Tropicos (June 2017), both name are now considered synonyms of Pteris pulchra. As annotated by Maxon (unsigned script), "Does not agree well with original description. P. arborescens is said to be syn. of P. kunzeana." [Original note in this record, unattributed but presumably by D. Lellinger: "Several isotypes and even a supposed holotype (Morton photo 5113) were labeled 6375 and then corrected crudely with a 6 written over the 5. All are bipinnate P. mexicana (Fee) Fourn."]
