Saka, Mariana Naomi, Moraes, Pedro Luís Rodrigues De, Lombardi, Julio Antonio & Diagre-Vanderpelen, Denis, 2017, Nomenclatural notes on Marantaceae described by Édouard Morren, Phytotaxa 329 (3), pp. 243-252 : 250

14. Stromanthe lubbersiana É.Morren (1882: 21)

≡ Ctenanthe lubbersiana (É.Morren) Petersen (1890a: 159)

Lectotype (designated here):—[illustration] tab. I in Morren (1882).

Note:— Stromanthe lubbersiana was described in 1882 based on a plant presented as Phrynium lubbersi hort. by Jacob-Makoy’s company a year before. Morren (1882: 22) placed this species in the genus Stromanthe , provided a list of known species, and a plate illustrating the habit and leaves of S. lubbersiana , which is designated as lectotype. This species was named after Mr. Louis Lubbers, chief of culture in Brussels Botanical Garden.

Excluded name:

15. Calathea mirabilis Jacob-Makoy ex É. Morren (1874a: 228)

≡ Phyllodes mirabilis (Jacob-Makoy ex É.Morren) Kuntze (1891: 696)

≡ Goeppertia mirabilis (Jacob-Makoy ex É.Morren) Borchs. & Suárez ( Borchsenius et al. 2012: 632)

Note:— Calathea mirabilis is described as having narrowly lanceolate and elongated leaves with ornamentation on the secondary veins, consisting of sessile and decurrent macules of a darker color against a greyish-colored background ( Morren 1874a: 228).Although this description is detailed, this ornamentation pattern is not uncommon in Marantaceae , and several Goeppertia species present the same pattern (e.g. G. bachemiana (É. Morren) Borchs. & Suárez , G. bella (W.Bull) Borchs. & Suárez , G. concinna (W.Bull) Borchs. & Suárez ). A plate or a specimen were not published by Morren, and since there are no further descriptions directly related to this taxon, this name is considered uncertain.
