LECTOTYPE (here designated). — China. Yunnan, in monte Tsangchan, supra Tali , alt. 4000 m, 3.VIII.1884, J.M. Delavay 996 (lecto-, P[P00602833]!; isolecto-, A[A00011748]!, K [ K000786464 ]!, P[P00602834]!).

REMARKS

Franchet (1888) described S. delavayi without designating any specimen as holotype but cited two specimens (Delavay 691 and Delavay 996) in the protologue, but, since then, no author has designated a lectotype, even inadvertently (Art. 7.11 of ICN, Turland et al. 2018) and all these collections should be regarded as syntypes (ICN; Art. 9.6, Turland et al. 2018). According to Stafleu & Cowan (1976), Franchet worked at P and Delavay’s specimens were deposited in K and P. Eight original materials were traced, two of them “ Delavay 691 ” deposited in P (P00602835, P00602836), and four of them “ Delavay 996 ” in A (A00011748), K (K000786464), and P (P00602833, P00602834). According to Art. 9.12 of ICN ( Turland et al. 2018) one of them should be chosen as the lectotype. Among these collections, the one sheet “ Delavay 996 ” in P (P00602833) is a perfect match to the description given in the protologue, thus, this blooming specimen is selected here as the lectotype.
