Many syntypes were cited in the original description of S. drymophilum; Sintenis 2025, Sintenis 2217, Sintenis 2121, Sintenis 2374, Sintenis 2480, Sintenis 5401. Of these, Sintenis 2374 is represented in many herbaria, and is composed a number of sheets in good condition with both flowers and fruit. I have selected the BM sheet as the lectotype (Fig. 3a) because it has all reproductive stages and is in good condition.
