Fernández, Martina, Martínez, Susana Graciela & Calviño, Carolina Isabel, 2020, Typifications of 31 names in Azorella (Azorelloideae, Apiaceae) from South America, Phytotaxa 433 (2), pp. 135-144 : 140

22. Azorella transverse-striata Hauman (1919: 492) .

Lectotype (designated here):— ARGENTINA. Santa Cruz : Iter Patagonicum, 15 January 1914, Hicken -Hauman 297 ( SI045556 !). Protologue:—“Sur le plateau patagonique, près de la ville de Santa Cruz, en janvier 1914, leg. L. Hauman ”.

= Azorella ameghinoi Spegazzini (1899: 54) .

Notes:— Hauman (1919) indicates that he used fragments conserved in formic solution to describe the new species because after the expedition Iter Patagonicum, he did not have access to the herborized specimens that he collected with Hicken. Therefore, the fragments in formic solution constitute the holotype and the herborized specimens that coincide with the protologue, the isotypes. The holotype, however was not found in any of the herbaria that house type material from Hauman (B, BA, BR, BRLU, G, NY, SI) and is considered lost or destroyed. Therefore, we designate as lectotype the isotype found at SI, that constitutes a well conserved and complete specimen.

23. Azorella trifoliolata Clos (1847 [1848]: 85) non Azorella trifoliolata (Hooker f.) Kirk (1899: 193) ≡ Pozoa trifoliolata Hooker f. (1853: 85) .

Lectotype (designated here):— CHILE. Chiloe, Cucao, Gay 207 (P00115339!; isolectotype P00115340!).

Protologue:—“Se cría en los llanos de Valdivia y Chiloe”.

Notes:— The protologue indicates two different localities that Clos registered for the new taxon and therefore it is inferred that the author used different gatherings, and it is necessary to lectotype. We have found several specimens collected by Gay in Chile and originally deposited at P ; some of these where collected after Clos´s publication of the new species and are therefore discarded, but others have no indication of date of collection (G00359818; JE00003912, K000529581, K000529583, K000529585, K000529586, P03254590). Among the probable original material, we also found one specimen by Gay from 1835 from Valdivia (P03254595), and two duplicates by Gay from his first voyage in Chiloe: P00115340, P00115339. The latter is most abundant in material and because it shows original collection labels with locality it is selected as the lectotype of A. trifoliolata .
