Artabotrys costatus King — Fig. 1

Artabotrys costatus King (1892) 37. — Lectotype (designated by Turner 2009): King’s Collector (Kunstler) 4291 (lecto K000381022;isolecto BM001014844, BO 1337669,CAL0000004275,CAL0000004307,L0185488,SING0096249, SING0108007,SING0108008),[Peninsular Malaysia,] Perak,Kinta [District], Gopeng, June 1883.

Note — Although King cited two collections in the protologue (King’s Collector 4291 and King’s Collector 10184), he mentioned only a single locality ‘ Perak; on Ulu Bubong’. Turner (2009) carried out an effective lectotypification and cited the lectotype locality as ‘Ulu Bubong’. However, it is clearly written on the labels that the lectotype selected by Turner, King’s Collector 4291 ( Fig. 1a ), was collected in ‘Gopeng, Kinta’ whereas the remaining syntype, King’s Collector 10184 ( Fig. 1b ), was collected in Ulu Bubong. The lectotype locality stated as ‘Ulu Bubong’ in Turner (2009, 2011, 2012, 2018) is erroneous and here corrected to ‘Kinta [District], Gopeng’.
