["Habitat in Brasilia, Jamaica."] Sp. Pl. 1: 371 (1753). RCN: 3336.

Replaced synonym: Spondias mombin L. (1753) .

Current name: Spondias mombin L. ( Anacardiaceae ).

Note: An illegitimate replacement name for the earlier S. mombin (1753). Spondias myrobalanus L. ( Syst. Nat., ed. 10, 2: 1036. May–Jun 1759) is not homotypic with S. myrobalanus L. ( Fl Jam.: 16. Dec 1759). However, the latter, too, is illegitimate as it is a later homonym.
