Cooke (1902) restored it to the rank of species, and we agree.</p><p>Nomenclatural notes — Flemingia nilgheriensis was originally described by Wight (1846) as F. procumbens from Pykara, Nilgiri hills. This name was already used by Roxburgh for an altogether different plant. According to Cooke (1902), Wight realized his mistake and corrected the error and added the name F. neilgherrensis on a slip which is attached with the type specimen in K, but we have not been able to confirm the existence of this specimen. In search of the type specimens we could trace three specimens (two at E and one at BM). Among these three specimens, the specimen E00157790 is complete, bears 3–4 flowering twigs and matches well with the protologue. Therefore, this specimen is designated here as a lectotype. The duplicates of this specimen BM001209605 and E00157789 constitute isolectotypes.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039D9972FF9C964DFCF5FE934FF3F796	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The protologue bears no information on the type. In search of the type specimen we could trace some specimens at DD and K (K001328006, K001328006). Among these, a single specimen from K (K001328006), which is complete and matches well with the protologue, has been designated here as a lectotype .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039D9972FF9B9648FFBAFF7A4B77F94E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Subsequent research- ers (Cooke 1902, Gamble 1928, Sanjappa 1992, Kothari 2001) treated this as the distinct species F. nilgheriensis . We agree with them. Almeida (1998) reported F. vestita as Lepidocoma vestita (Benth. ex Baker) M.R.Almeida in his Flora of Maharashtra; however, field surveys and herbarium consultations reveal that this species has not been collected from Maharashtra so far.</p><p>Nomenclatural note — The binomial Dolichos vestitus Graham was proposed by Graham in the Wallich catalogue. Graham omitted to validate the name (Wallich 1828). Baker (1876) validated Graham’s name and proposed a new combination Flemingia vestita in Hooker’s Flora of British India. However, Baker (1876) did not mention any specific sheet as the type in the protologue but he cited the specimen with Wallich catalogue number 5545. In search of the type we could locate three sheets, one each at K (K-W, K001121248), CAL (0000067596) and G. All these match well with the description given in the protologue and can be considered as original material. In order to fix the ap- plication of the binomial Flemingia vestita we herewith designate K (K001121248) from the Wallich collection as lectotype.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039D9972FF9B9657FCF5F96B4CA7FDDB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
