Guilandina bonducella Linnaeus, Species Plantarum, ed. 2, 1: 545. 1762.

“Habitat in Indiis.” RCN: 3003.

Lectotype (Rudd in Dassanayake & Fosberg, Revised Handb. Fl. Ceylon 7: 48. 1991): Herb. Hermann 3: 35, No. 156 (BM-000594677).

Current name: Caesalpinia bonduc (L.) Roxb. (Fabaceae: Caesalpinioideae).

Note: Although Brenan (in Milne-Redhead & Polhill, Fl. Trop. E. Africa, Leguminosae 2: 38. 1967) observed that this name was homotypic with G. bonduc L., he did not effectively typify the latter, so the typification of C. bonducella dates from Rudd’s 1991 choice.
