= Boschniakia handelii Beck in Engler (1930: 328)— Syntypes: China. Yunnan, Handel-Mazzetti 4148, 7059, 9285, 9531 (WU)

= Xylanche kawakamii (Hayata) Beck (1930: 330) View in CoL Ξ Boschniakia kawakamii Hayata (1914: 19) View in CoL — Type: China. Taiwan: Yushan, Oct., 1909, T. Kawakami & S. Sasaki s.n. (TI).

The valid publication date of Xylanche Beck is considered to be 1893 (author note: the correct publication as, Beck von Mannagetta 1895: 132) by some researchers (e.g. Fischer 2004) and in the ING, IPNI and Tropicos databases (accessed on 17 October, 2012). Actually, Beck von Mannagetta (1890: 58) annotated Xylanche as “n. g.” and he provided the diagnostic characters in the identification key, thus fulfilling the requirements under Article 32.1 and 36.1. The combination X. himalaica View in CoL was denoted in the footnote ( Beck von Mannagetta 1890: 58). Therefore, both Xylanche and X. himalaica View in CoL were simultaneously validated in 1890.
