Lucuma dolichophylla Standl. ex Ll.Williams, Bot. Mus. Leafl. 13 (9): 289 [18 Apr. 1949] (Williams 1949).

NOTES. — Schultes (1949: 289) stated that he only translated into latin Ll. Williams’ English description of Lucuma dolichophylla , and he unequivocally ascribed authorship to Ll. Williams. Lucuma gutta Ducke and Pouteria gutta Ducke are alternative names (published simultaneously for the same taxon), but both are nevertheless valid, because they were published before 1953 ( Turland et al. 2018: Art. 36.3). Therefore, the transfer of Lucuma gutta to Pouteria by Baehni is superfluous.
