3.3. Cleobulia diocleoides Benth., Fl. Bras. 15(1): 168. 1859.
Type.
Brazil, Minas Gerais, Saint Hilaire s.n. Cat. 1311 (holotype: P! [00758522]). Epitype (designated here): Brazil, Bahia, Campo Formoso, Queiroz et al. 16306 (HUEFS! [000274630]).
Note.
The holotype is the only remanant of the material used by Bentham (1859) for describing C. diocleoides . The material now consists of a branch with leaves and a dissected flower bud within an envelope. A detached calyx from a mature flower is the only element that allows us to check that this plant presents flowers much larger than the other species of Cleobulia as described by Bentham (1859) and Maxwell (1977). We selected an epitype from a more complete material with flowers and immature fruits.
