[989] Byrsonima aerugo Sagot

Ann. Sci. Nat., Bot. sér. 6, 12: 178 (Sagot 1881).

NOTES. — Anderson (2007: 85) made a first-step lectotypification by choosing among the paratypes “ Sagot 102 (lectotype: P!; isolectotypes: BM! G! K! MEL! MICH! NY!”. However, there are four collection dates among the eight specimens labelled “ Sagot 102 ” at P (1855, 1856, 1857, 1858). It is therefore necessary to designate one of them as lectotype. We selected the specimen P05529869 dated 1857 on which Sagot affixed a complete handwritten description of his new species.

VERNACULAR NAMES. — Ka: pelulu • Wn: mulei.
