Terminalia catappa Linnaeus , Systema Naturae, ed. 12, 2: 674; Mantissa Plantarum: 128. 1767.

"Habitat in India." RCN: 7625.

Lectotype (Byrnes in Contr. Queensland Herb. 20: 38. 1977): Herb. Linn. No. 1222.1 ( LINN) .

Generitype of Terminalia Linnaeus , nom. cons.

Current name: Terminalia catappa L. ( Combretaceae ).

Note: Terminalia Linnaeus , nom. cons. against Bucida L. and Adamaram Adans. Smith (in Brittonia 23: 405. 1971) regarded Exell (in J. Bot. 69: 125. 1931) as having typified the name by a sheet in LINN but Exell notes, in the context of establishing a generitype, that T. catappa is the only species represented in LINN.
