• Lectotype: "Only two sheets in K qualify as possible type material of this variety, ... The first sheet consists of two distinct collections: on the left 2 specimens and a label `537/1842, Hobart 27/11/40', and on the right, 2 more specimens and a label `537/1842, Hobart October 184[0?]'. Both collections closely match the description and the first, because it has both flowers and fruits, is here chosen as lectotype."
