Sloanea dentata Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 1: 512. 1753 View Cited Treatment .

"Habitat in America meridionali." RCN: 3860.

Lectotype (Bornstein in Howard, Fl. Lesser Antilles 5: 181. 1989): [icon] “Sloana” in Plumier, Nov. Pl. Amer.: 48, t. 15. 1703.

Generitype of Sloanea Linnaeus (vide Green, Prop. Brit. Bot.: 161. 1929).

Current name: Sloanea dentata L. View in CoL ( Elaeocarpaceae ).

Note: Smith (in Contr. Gray Herb. 175: 65. 1954) stated "based on a Plumier plate and description", but this is insufficiently explicit to be accepted as a formal typification. Bornstein (in Howard, Fl. Lesser Antilles 5: 181. 1989), however, treated the plate as the type (while attributing the choice to Smith), so the typification dates from 1989.
