status

 

4.1.26. Macropsychanthus mindanaensis Merr., Philipp. J. Sci. 5: 120. 1910.

Type.

Philippines, Mindanao, Province of Surigao, Bolster 330 (holotype: PNH †).

Note.

Merrill (1910) did not refer to the herbarium where the type is housed and we were unable to track it. The PNH herbarium curator confirmed that the holotype was housed at PNH (as PNH 4697) but that it was destroyed during World War II (L. Evangelista, Philippine National Herbarium, National Museum, pers. comm.). Adema (1998) speculated that it could be more closely related to (or conspecific with) M. ferrugineus as it was described as having ten fertile stamens.
