10. Ixora hainanensis Merr. View in CoL ( Rubiaceae ) in Lingnan Sci. J. 6(3): 287. 1928. TYPE:— CHINA. Hainan: Danzhou , 20 July 1927, W. T. Tsang 114 (i.e. Lingnan University Herbarium 15613) (holotype: UC 315714 image!; Isotypes: A 00096718 image!, NY 00131984 image!, NY 00131985 image!).
The name Ixora hainanensis Merr. was validly published with a gathering Ts‘ang Wai Tak 15613 in UC designated as the type (Merrill, 1928a). However, the collection number on the label of the holotype specimen is 114, while its herbarium number is Lingnan University Herbarium 15613. Therefore, the collection number cited in the protologue is to be corrected.
