  • Text: "The lectotype selected by Wilson (1994a) was a mixed sheet containing elements of two collections made by Hamilton from the same location. He made a flowering collection in April 1902 and a fruiting collection in August 1902. A second-step lectotype is designated here to exclude the fruiting material, which forms a small part of the material on the sheet."
