Treatment

Hellwigia dekockii (Valeton) Senjaya & A. D. Poulsen comb. nov.

Alpinia dekockii Valeton View in CoL , Nova Guinea 8: 949 1913 (Basionym). Type: Papua, Mount Goliath [ Peak Yamin , Jayawijaya Mts.], A. C. de Kock 17 (lectotype: designated here, BO! [Sheet No. BO-0080572 ])

Notes.

In the protologue, Valeton (1913) cited “ de Kock n. 1911, ” which was previously interpreted as a collection number. The specimen housed at BO is labelled as de Kock No. 17 and also bears an annotation reading “ AC. de Kock 22 M. 1911, ” which appears to be the source of confusion. The de Kock No. 17 specimen, as cited in the protologue, was collected from the Goliath Mountain.
