14. Chirita heterotricha Merr. View in CoL

(Gesneriaceae) in Lingnan Sci. Journ. 13(1): 71. 1934.

TYPE: — CHINA. Hainan: Hongmao Shan, 3 May 1929, W. T. Tsang, Tang & H. Fung 28 (i.e. Lingnan University Herbarium 17559) (holotype: NY 00063240 image!; isotype: A 00015874 image!) .

The name Chirita heterotricha Merr. was validly published with a gathering “ Tsang, Tang & Fung 17559 ” in NY designated as the type ( Merrill, 1934b). However, the collecting number on the lable of the holotype specimen is 28, while its herbarium number is Lingnan University Herbarium 17559. Therefore, the erroneous collecting number in the designation of type is to be corrected.
