Lasianthus brevipes Craib (1933: 20) View in CoL , nom. illeg., non Valeton (1927). Saprosma brevipes H. Zhu (2001: 148) View in CoL . Type:— THAILAND. Nakawn Sritamarat, s.d., A.F.G. Kerr 15641 (holotype K! (K 000777001), isotypes, BK!, BM!).

Distribution — Thailand.

Note:— Lasianthus brevipes Craib is an illegitimate name (homonym of Lasianthus brevipes Valeton ). Zhu (2001: 148) attempted to make the new combination Saprosma brevipes based on L. brevipes Craib , which was also an invalid name. Zhu (2001: 148) inadvertently published the name Saprosma brevipes with a direct reference to Craib’s (1933: 20) diagnosis and Latin description of L. brevipes Craib , and cited holotype and isotypes of the new taxon. Therefore, the correct name for this species is P. brevipes (H. Zhu) H. Zhu , which is based on S. brevipes H. Zhu.
