Morus serrata View in CoL

In describing this species, Roxburgh (1832b) referred to Hardwicke’s Morus 1. I have not found any Roxburgh material that could be used to typify this Himalayan mulberry. There are some Hardwicke drawings of Morus but none can be directly linked to Morus 1 of the Asiatick Researches paper. I therefore propose a neotype for the name – a collection made by R. Blinkworth from Kumaon in the East India Company Herbarium.
