Triplaris cumingiana Fisch. & C.A.Mey. ex C.A.Mey. (1840: 148) View in CoL
Type (designated here):— COLOMBIA. Bolívar Department: Quimarí, Cordillera Occidental, Vertiente Oriente, 14 March 1949 (fl), von Sneidern 5706 (neotype: US [ US 3223905, digital image!]).
Notes:— In the protologue, Meyer (1840: 148) cited a Cuming specimen collected from Colombia. Brandbyge (1986) seems to have been unable to locate this specimen giving the type as “ Type: Cuming s.n. Hab. in Colombia. N. V. [non vidi]”. Cuming distributed his collections very widely ( HUH-IB, 2022), so much so that he cannot be considered to have a home institution. Thus, we started to search for specimens in herbaria associated with Meyer ( H, LE, MW, and OXF), without positive results ( HUH-IB, 2022). We expanded our search by checking other important herbaria (eg., B, BE, BM, F, HUH, K, L, M, MO, NY, P, S, U, and WAG), but we were again unable to locate any useful specimen. Lacking original material (Art. 9.4 of ICBN), a neotypification should be made (Art. 9.8 of ICBN). We have selected a specimen of Triplaris cumingiana collected in Colombia that best fits the description given in the protologue.
