ID remarks:
Although Fawcett & Rendle (Fl. Jamaica 4: 23. 1920) indicated material in LINN as type, they did not distinguish between sheets 922.11, 922.12 and 922.13 (which are evidently not part of a single gathering so Art. 9.15 does not apply). Cufodontis (in Bull. Jard. Bot. État Bruxelles 25: 288. 1955) stated "Typus: Hasselquist (in Aegypti sepibus)" but did not indicate a specimen. Gillett (in Kew Bull. 17: 112. 1963) wrongly indicated 922.13 (LINN), a collection from König that was not received by Linnaeus until 1777, as the holotype.
Location remarks:
"Habitat in Aegypti sepibus."
