Notes.
Croton adenophorus was substantially recircumscribed from the concept of Leandri (1939) and Radcliffe-Smith (2016) by Kainulainen et al. (2017b). In both earlier publications, C. loucoubensis was treated as a synonym of C. adenophorus , and C. subaemulans was recognized as a distinct species. This earlier synonymy was due to a fundamental misunderstanding of C. adenophorus . See Kainulainen et al. (2017b) for further details and the distinguishing features of C. adenophorus and C. loucoubensis .
The sheet P00466148 is listed in Sonnerat under Croton tulasnei , but without an image. We never saw this specimen at P either before or after the herbarium renovation in 2015, and the whole folder of C. tulasnei was missing during visits to P in 2016 and 2017.
Radcliffe-Smith (2016) mentioned Boivin 2187 at P as the lectotype for Croton adenophorus but failed to state "designated here" or an equivalent statement, so his designation was not validly published.
