191. Musa simiarum Miq. var. simiarum View in CoL

Flora Indiae Batavae 3: 589 (1855). — Type:Rumphius, Herbarium Amboinense 5: t. 61 fig. 1 (1747) (lecto-, here designated).

REMARKS Herbarium and types of Rumphius were almost completely destroyed in a fire ( Stafleu & Cowan 1983). Therefore the illustration has to serve as a lectotype. It has been suspected that M. simiarum Miq. is synonymous with M. acuminata Colla ( Hotta 1989) , which we are not able to confirm. This name requires further field studies.
