"Habitat in India." RCN: 2960.

Lectotype (Nicolson & al., Interpret. Van Rheede’s Hort. Malab:. 132. 1988): [icon] "Tagera " in Rheede, Hort. Malab. 2: 103, t. 53. 1679.

Note: Irwin & Barneby (in Brittonia 28: 435-437. 1976) discussed this name in some detail, illustrating the cited Rheede figure as their f. 1. They concluded that the name should be discarded as a nomen ambiguum. However, Nicolson & al. subsequently disagreed, and designated the Rheede plate as lectotype.
