REMARKS

There is a sheet at FI, collected at the type locality, “Abita Sarawak a Marop, P. B[eccari] no. 3356 ”. We consider that no. 3356 probably represents a printing error. Beccari (1902: fig. 76, 80) provided two illustrations, which, as well as the diagnosis, fits the lectotype. The name is diagnosed also at page 622 where the type locality information is also given .
