Adams' designation of a neotype is superseded under ICN Art. 9.19(a) (Shenzhen Code, 2018), as original material for the name was in existence. See Robson (1980, 1996) for discussion of typification.

Text:
"Fawcett & Rendle (1926: 203) indicated the type as Patrick Browne's specimen from Jamaica (LINN 944.2)... Adams (1957: 83) designated this specimen as a neotype, it having been added to the Linnaean herbarium only in 1758, after the publication of Species plantarum (1753). As I have explained, however (Robson, 1980), there is no need for the selection of a neotype, as Plumier's illustration is an appropriate lectotype."
