Palm.3: 244. 1838.  Typus: MEXICO:“Crescit in temperatis Novae Hispaniae propre la Moxonera et Alto de las Caxas; item juxta Chilpantzingo et Masatlan”, s.d., Bonpland & Humboldt s.n., (holo-: P-Bonpl.

The duplicate at F is a fragment from the P herbarium, whereas those at M and USare fragment from P-Bonpl. The duplicate at G is attributed to the Delessert original herbarium. 12.  Corypha maritimaKunth, Nov. Gen.Sp. 1 (ed. 4): 298. 1816.   ÷   Sabal maritima(Kunth) Burretin Repert. Spec. Nov. Regni Veg. 32: 101. 1933.    Lectotypus(designated here):  CUBA:“Crescit in littore australi Insulae Cubae prope pagum Batabano”, s.d.,  Bonpland& Humboldts.n.(P [P00725626]!).   Notes. –The original publication does not provide any collection number for the type material but the original label of the specimen stored at P bears the collection number Bonpland & Humboldt 1355. DAHLGREN (1959)pointed out that the holotypeof the species was deposited at P-Bonpl. and this was corroborated by ZONA (1995). We could not find any original material associated to this palm at P-Bonpl. and the only specimen associated to this taxon is currently stored in the P general collection. This material was never available to Kunthand his description of the palm in Nova generawas most probably based on the original field notes noted down in the “Journal Botanique”. Therefore, the latter cannot be considered as the holotypeof the species and is designated by us as the lectotype. 13.  Corypha miraguamaKunth, Nov.

State Michoacan: La Huacanaand La Playa, near Rancho La Agua Blanca, Zona 251( RSA!).  Vernacular name. –“Pumos” ( KUNTH, 1816).  Notes. –As no original material was found in P-Bonpl. and P the specialist of this group, Scott Zona (FIU), has proposed as neotypefor this taxon a fully informative specimen clearly corresponding to this taxon and collected by him near the region where the original material was sampled. 16.  Corypha tectorumKunth, Nov.

No original material was found in P-Bonpl. and the only specimen associated to this palm is stored at P. This material was never available to Kunthand his description of the palm in Nova generawas most probably based on the original field notes noted down in the “Journal Botanique”. We designate the specimen stored at P as lectotypeof the species with a fragment at FI (CUCCUINI & NEPI, 2006). 17.  Jubaea spectabilisKunth, Nov.

This specimen does not correspond to the genus  Jubaea, as already noted by Max Burret (s.d.), who identified the material as  Bactris gasipaesKunth. Therefore, the specimen at P-Bonpl. cannot be regarded as the type of  Jubaea spectabilisKunth.The plate 96 of Nova generawas chosen by GLASSMAN (1987: 120)as lectotypeof the species. 18.  Kunthia montanaBonpl., Pl.

BORCHSENIUS & BERNAL (1996) designated  Bonpland& Humboldt1888at P as lectotype. A second-step lectotypification is required as three specimensexist at P. The lectotypeis the most complete specimen and bears a middle pinna and informative inflorescence rachillae fragments. 20.  Mauritia aculeataKunth, Nov.
