Reassessment of the typification of two names in the genus Celastrus : Celastrus monospermus Roxb. & Celastrus hindsii Benth. (Celastraceae: Celastroideae)
Abstract
The inadvertently designated neotype of Celastrus monospermus Roxb., by Hou (1955), is superseded following the provisions of the Madrid code, as the original material is extant. In addition, the lectotypification of C. hindsii Benth. by Hou (1955) is treated as a first-step lectotypification, and a second-step lectotype is designated here.
