Notes:—When Ceropegia lanceolata was published, the gathering Wallich asclep. n. 12 from Nepal was cited in the protologue, but no specific herbarium sheet was designated as holotype. This gathering contains at least two sheets, one at E and another at K. The best one, K-000857830, is designated here as the lectotype, as it agrees well with the protologue.
