Species Plantarum, ed. 2, 2 : 1060 (1763)
ID remarks:
Although Fawcett & Rendle (Fl. Jamaica 4: 24. 1920) indicated material in LINN as type, they did not distinguish between sheets 922.1 and 922.2 (which are evidently not part of a single gathering, so Art. 9.15 does not apply). Ali appears to have been the first to make an unequivocal choice.
Location remarks:
"Habitat in India."
