2. Chaetogastra ornata (Sw.) P.J.F.Guim. & Michelang. View in CoL , comb. nov.

Melastoma ornatum Swartz (1788: 69) View in CoL Osbeckia ornata (Sw.) Swartz (1798: 647) View in CoL . Type:— GUADELOUPE. s.d., H. De Ponthieu s. n. (lectotype, designated by Howard (1972): BM barcode BM BM000795772!).

= Rhexia inconstans Vahl (1797:37) View in CoL Chaetogastra inconstans (Vahl) P.J.F.Guim. & Michelang. View in CoL in Guimarães et al. (2019: 963), syn. nov. Type:— GUADELOUPE. s.d., s.c. s.n. (lectotype, designated by Guimarães et al. (2019): LINN-HS accession number 654.8 [online image!]).

= Rhexia strigosa Richard (1792: 108) View in CoL Chaetogastra strigosa (Rich.) Candolle (1828: 134) View in CoL Hephestionia strigosa (Rich.) Naudin (1850: 36–37) View in CoL Tibouchina strigosa (Rich.) Cogniaux View in CoL in Candolle & Candolle (1891: 266). Type:— GUADELOUPE. s.d., L.C. Richard s.n. (lectotype designated here: P barcode 00708783!; isolectotype: P barcode 00708784!).

= Melastoma ciliatum Desrousseaux (1797: 49) View in CoL , nom. illeg. non Melastoma ciliatum Richard (1792: 109) View in CoL . Type:— GUADELOUPE. s.d., Mr. de Badier s.n. (type: likely at P but not found).

Notes:— Melastoma ornatum Sw. View in CoL is the oldest basionym for this species and it was omitted from the list of synonyms by Guimarães et al. (2019). Because the combination Chaetogastra inconstans (Vahl) P.J.F.Guim. & Michelang. View in CoL is based on a more recent synonym ( Rhexia inconstans Vahl (1797: 37) View in CoL , a new combination for the basionym with priority is needed. Guimarães et al. (2019) designated a lectotype for Osbeckia ornata View in CoL unaware of the designation already made by Howard (1972) for Melastoma ornatum View in CoL . The first designation of the lectotype has priority and that is noted above.
