Iresine herbstii Hook.

in Gard. Chron. 1864: 654. 1864 – Lectotype (designated here): From Messrs. Herbst & Stenger, PERU: Mayobamba, 1835, Mathews 1616 (K barcode K000583148 [image!]).

= Achyranthes verschaffeltii Lem. View in CoL in Ill. Hort. 11: pl. 409. 1864 ≡ Iresine verschaffeltii (Lem.) Lem. ex Van Houtte in Ill. Hort. 11: sub pl. 418. 1864 – Type: BRAZIL. No more data provided in the protologue.

= Iresine lindenii Van Houtte in Fl. Serres 17: 41, t. 1737. 1868 – Type: ECUADOR. 1868. No more data provided in the protologue.

Note. – On the same sheet a rather fragmentary second specimen is mounted, barcode K000583149 [image!]. Hooker did not mention flowers when he described the plant in Gardeners Chronicle, so it is hard to judge if he just saw one of the specimens or both. We selected the more complete specimen as lectotype.

Taxonomic status: Species limits not yet studied in detail (B).
