Graffenrieda rupestris Ducke (1935: 66) View in CoL

Type (lectotype, designated here):— BRAZIL. “Habitat in rupibus humidis humo obtectis secus ripas fluminis Curicuriary (Rio Negro superioris affluentis, in civitate Amazonas)”, 21 December 1931, A. Ducke s.n. H.J.B.R. 24107 ( RB 00541385!, isolectotypes K000329499!, P01818657!, RB00556690!, US 00120420!).

Notes: In its original publication, Ducke (1935), referenced his own collection, without number and with the consecutive number 24.107 of the Herbarium of the Botanical Garden of Rio de Janeiro ( RB). However, in this herbarium there are two sheets with the same registration number (barcodes RB00541385] and [RB00556690. The specimen RB00541385 is more complete with buds, flowers and fruits, and has illustrations and handwritten notes presumably made by the author. For this reason, in addition to be the herbarium indicated in the protologue, this collection is selected as the lectotype, following the art. 8.1 of the ICN ( Turland et al. 2018). Additionally, there are duplicates at K, P and US.
