15. Prunus adenodonta Merr. View in CoL ( Rosaceae ) in Lingnan Sci. J. 7: 308. 1929. TYPE:— CHINA. Guangdong: Yingde, 26 October 1926, W. T. Tsang & K. C. Wong 2888 (i.e. Canton Christian College Herbarium 14749) (syntype: UC 319514 image!).

The name Prunus adenodonta Merr. was validly published with the gathering Tsang Wai Tak and Wong Kam Chow 14749 designated as the type (Merrill, 1929). However, the collection number on the label of the syntype specimen (UC 319514) is 2888, while its herbarium number is Canton Christian College Herbarium 14749. Thus, the erroneous collection number cited in the designation of type is to be corrected.
