≡ Pyrus lochengensis (T. T. Yu) M. F. Fay & Christenh., Global Fl. 4: 110. 2018.

Type.

China. Guangxi: Lo-cheng (= Luocheng), W. Chen 84410 (holotype: IBSC; isotypes: PE [barcode 00004611!, 01790013!]) . Note A.

Distribution.

China (Guangxi).

Note A.

In the protologue, Yu and Kuan (1963) designated the type specimen as being deposited in the herbarium “ HC ”, which they referenced as “ Herb. Inst. Austro-Sin. Acad. Sin. Canton ”. The correct standard name for this institute is the South China Botanical Garden (IBSC). However, we could not locate any specimens from this collection in IBSC. Instead, we found two isotype sheets at the PE herbarium.
