NOTES

Lecomte (1928a: 113) cited Poilane 273 from “ Cambodge: Mont de l’Eléphant ” as the original gathering. Three sheets of Poilane 273 have been located at NY and P, and here we designate P00721494 as the lectotype since it is the best preserved, has fruits and a detailed label, and was identified by Lecomte himself.
