Mucuna monosperma Roxb. ex Wight View in CoL
Mucuna monosperma Roxb.ex Wight View in CoL in Hook. (1831) 346; Craib (1928) 444. — Carpopogon monosperma Roxb. [(1814) 54, nom. nud.]; (1832) 283. — Lectotype ( Wilmot-Dear 1992): Roxburgh 276 (holo BM;? iso K n.v.).
Several times mentioned for Sumatra ( Miquel 1855, Prain 1897a, b, Craib 1928), Borneo ( Ridley 1938) or the Philippines ( Fernandez-Villar 1880). No specimens from Sumatra or the Philippines identified as M. monosperma have been seen by the present authors. The specimen of Fernandez-Villar may belong to M. diplax View in CoL . The Bornean specimens belong to M. elmeri View in CoL , which is also one-seeded. We do not know what the Sumatran references represent. The species name has been credited to De Candolle, however, in the Prodromus he gives M. monosperma in a list of species that may belong to the genus Mucuna View in CoL . He cites Roxburgh as the source of the name.
