• Text: "Hovenkamp (1986, p. 238) cited the type of the name Polypodium rupestre as ‘Type: Robert Brown, s.n., s.d. (holo: BM, iso: K, B, P), Australia, Port Jackson’. This is here treated as effective lectotypification by Hovenkamp, in accordance with ICN Art. 7.11 (Turland et al. 2018). Because Hovenkamp’s citation meets the relevant requirements of ICN Art. 7.11, his use of the term ‘holo’ is correctable under ICN Art. 9.10."
