• Text: "Bean (1997, p.248) states that P. Osbeck s.n. LINN 505.1 from China (Guangzhou [Canton], Guangdong Province) is the holotype. Based on Bean (op. cit.), Jarvis (2007), in accordance with Article 9.9 of McNeill et al. (2012), indicates that the above is in fact a lectotype. LINN 505.1 comprises at least five separate fragments, mounted on a single sheet, that were probably derived from a single specimen, and therefore second-stage lectotypification (McNeill et al. 2012: Article 9.17) does not apply."
