Larnax vasquezii S. Leiva, E. Rodríguez Rodríguez & J. Campos (1998: 206)

Lectotype (designated here):— PERU. Cajamarca: San Ignacio, Dist. San José de Lourdes, Estrella del Oriente , 1600 m, 04°50’S 78°55’W, 8 January 1998, S. Leiva, J. Campos & E. Rodríguez 2109 ( US 00623565 ! , isolectotypes: CONN 00055674 ! , CORD 00004050 ! , F 2198657 ! , M 0171574 ! , MO 04908632 ! , NY 00328793 ! ).

The specimen designated as lectotype is the best one and consists of three branches with buds and some flowers ( Fig. 19 A ) that properly characterize the species. Furthermore, there are three berries enclosed by the accrescent calyx that appear to be subglobose but they are actually pyriform ( Fig. 19 E ).
