Nomenclatural notes.

Jasminum eberhardtii was described (Gagnepain 1933a, b) based on the collections made by P.A. Eberhardt (Coll. no. 4323) from Hoa-Binh Province in northern Vietnam. While searching for the original materials of J. eberhardtii, we could locate two specimens P00644271 and P00644273, matching the original description (Art. 9.6 of ICN, Turland et al. 2018), but neither of them was designated as a lectotype (Ho 2000; Tran 2003). Therefore, we selected P00644271, as a lectotype following Arts. 9.3 and 9.11 of ICN (Turland et al. 2018) as it best represents the species. The other specimen (P00644273) is designated as isolectotype.
