Graffenrieda cinna Macbride (1941: 321)

Type (lectotype, designated here):— PERU. “ San Martín: Zepelacio, near Moyobamba” October–November 1933, G. Klug 3313 (F736357!, isolectotypes GH 00072289 [digital image!], MO 1081982!, NY 00228584!, S05-3275 [digital image!], US 00120400!, WIS 0255924 [digital image!]).

Notes: in the original description of G. cinna, Macbride (1941) assigned the collection Klug 3313 as the type, but there are duplicates of this collection at F, GH, MO, NY, S, US and WIS. Considering that in the protologue there was no reference to one of these duplicates from which the holotype could be inferred, according to Art. 9.1 Note 1, the F specimen is here designated as the lectotype. This specimen was selected following recommendation 9A of the ICN ( Turland et al. 2018), since F is the depository of the Macbride type collections ( Stafleu & Cowan 1981) and it corresponds to the description. It should be noted that all isolectotypes (but not the specimen here designated as lectotype) bear the annotations “ Graffenrieda pubescens Gleason ” and “type coll.”. This name was never published and presumably Macbride was not aware of Gleason’s name as the F specimen is the only one that does not have that name in the label.
