Moms papyrifera Linnaeus, Species Plantarum 2: 986. 1753.

"Habitat in Japonia." RCN: 7148.

Lectotype (Florence, Fl. Polynésie Française 1: 146. 1997): [icon] " Morus papyrifera " in Kaempfer, Amoen. Exot. Fasc.: 471, 472. 1712.

Current name: Broussonetia papyrifera (L.) Vent. ( Moraceae).

Note: Browicz (in Rechinger, Fl. Iranica 153: 5. 1982) designated 1112.4 (LINN) as the type but this appears to be a Kleynhof collection, which would not have been acquired by Linnaeus until long after 1753. It cannot therefore be original material for the name.
