content: Not a type! Annotated (unsigned, undated; probably by D. Lellinger circa 1990's) as "holotype" of Elaphoglossum hookerianum Underw. ex Maxon. Tuerckheim II 1862 has been cited (Mickel & Beitel, 1988; Mickel & Smith 2004) as "type" of this name and this US sheet was cited as "lectotype" by Vasco (2011, Blumea 56: 186). However, Maxon's name was an explicit nom. nov. for Acrostichum muscosum var. latifolium Hook. (1864, Sp. Fil. 5: 231) and the type(s) of that name (syntypes from Jamaica & Peru, probably extant at K) must be the type(s) of Maxon's. Tuerckheim II 1862 is at best a voucher for Maxon's concept of the taxon.
