Viola atropurpurea Leybold (1858: 158) View in CoL
Type (lectotype, designated here):—[ CHILE. XIII Región:] Valle del Maipo arriba, F. Leybold s.n. (SGO 000003269 [digital image!]).
Protologue citation:— “En los cumbres del Mapocho.—Cerro Colorado.—En el Portillo del viento, entre el Descabezado del Maule i el cerro azul.”
Distribution:— Native of Argentina and Chile. In Argentina it is registered for San Juan, Mendoza, and Neuquén provinces.
Notes: —Friedrich Leybold was a German botanist but he settled in Chile from 1855 onwards ( Stafleu & Cowan 1979). It is not known where he deposited his herbarium material and types, but type materials collected by Leybold between 1854 and 1890 were deposited at SGO ( Stafleu & Cowan 1979; Muñoz-Schick et al. 2012) without evidence that duplicates were sent or not to other herbaria. Given the uncertainty that duplicates may exist in other herbaria, we found the specimen with the barcode number SGO 000003269 in the National Museum of Natural History, Santiago, Chile, and selected it as the lectotype since fully agrees with the protologue of the species. The specimen includes four labels; three seems to be original and the fourth was added later, on April 1972, by Carlos Muñoz Pizarro, who compared specimens deposited at SGO with original publications ( Muñoz-Schick et al. 2012). One of the original labels only bears the identification “ Viola atropurpurea Leyb. ” The second of the original labels, in addition to the identification “ Viola atropurpurea Leyb. ”, indicates the location “Valle del Maipo arriba, Leybold” in agreement with the protologue information. The third original label instead bears the identification “ Viola sempervivum Gay ” and indicates the location “Cordill. Santiago ad limit nivis perpet. Febr. 1854”. However, the identification “atropurpurea Leyb. ” it is written above this same label.
