Cryptocarya petiolata van der Werff, nom. nov.

Ξ Ravensara affinis Kosterm. in Not. Syst. (Paris) 8: 104. 1939 [non Cryptocarya affinis Merr.].

Lectotypus (designated here): MADAGASCAR. Prov. Antananarivo: bois des pentes occidentale, près d’Anjanabonoina bassin inférieur de l’Andrantsay, W. de Betafo, c. 1400 m, [19°57’02»S 46°28’36»E], IX.1921, fl., Perrier de la Bâthie 13952 (P [P01991357]! ; isolecto-: P [P01991355, P01991356, P01991358] images seen).

Note. – KOSTERMANS (1939: 104) cited two collections under Ravensara affinis: Perrier de la Bâthie 13952 was listed as the type in the protologue, but specimens of Perrier de la Bâthie 10144 cited by Kostermans were annotated as the type in P. I follow the type indication from the protologue and accept Perrier de la Bâthie 13952 as the type collection of Cryptocarya petiolata with the sheet P01991357 designated here as the lectotype. Perrier de la Bâthie 10144 is no more than a paratype.
