COMMENT

According to Jelenc (1957), the locality “Sud-Oranais, Khunda” appears in the label of the sample collected by Trabut in April 1907, at PC; he indicates that he did not locate any geographical place with this name and that this word is very similar to a word in the Arabic language “Khandek”, and that it was possibly a mistake to refer to the locality “Le Kreider”.
