  • Comment: Robinson indicates that Brucea sumatrana was validly published by Roxburgh via citation of "H.A. 7. t. 15" [i.e. the plate in Rumphius & Burman, Herbarium Amboinense Auctuarium] in the footnote. This constitutes reference to a previously and effectively published description or diagnosis under ICBN Arts 32.1 and 38.8 (Melbourne Code, 2012).
