Notes —In the preface of his “ Prodromus ”,A.P. de Candolle (1824) stated that all specimens from his personal herbarium were identified with the sign “ v. s. ” (i.e., vidit sicco) ( Ferrer-Gallego & Laguna 2018). We believe that A.L.P.P. de Candolle (1844) followed the same idea, as the single gathering cited in the protologue of A. multiflorum (Blanchet 2806) was indicated as “ v. s. ”. Currently, the specimens from the de Candolle family collection are incorporated into the herbarium G, recognized by the acronym G-DC. Since only one of the five sheets of Blanchet 2806 from G possesses the G-DC label, we consider this specimen to be the holotype of A. multiflorum (G barcode G00143974).
